We some mutts

Thinking that we done?

Dumb

Hot Charity / XL Recordings are releasing RATKING's debut EP "Wiki93" (produced entirely by Sporting Life) on November 6. RATKING exists as New York's next great band. Like the Beastie Boys and Yeah Yeah Yeahs - local bands that came together as punks before developing into something far beyond that - RATKING manage to mix youthful hardcore energy with pure NY beats and rhymes in a post-hip-hop crew that could only exist in 2012.
