Rats on RaftsNL

Rats On Rafts return with brand new music since 2021’s acclaimed album, ‘Excerpts Of Chapter 3: The Mind Runs A Net Of Rabbit Paths’.
Currently preparing for the release of their fourth album set for release in 2025, Rats On Rafts’ new single ‘Hibernation’ is a rain-soaked lament to nature’s battered mortality, a monochrome snapshot of the landscape played out in beautiful cold wave delay.
Finding joy in self-isolation, “I noticed that I could feel really comfortable with songs that can feel really heavy and isolated,” says Fagan “ If you listen to a Joy Division record for example, for a lot of people they’re really downcast. But for some people it’s like stepping into a really warm bath, because you can really identify with that music. I think that’s also what’s going on with “Hibernation”. I could identify with the coldness of the atmosphere, and that languid feeling of that song.”
Support Nouveau Vélo is now a familiar name in the Dutch indie scene. While the band often showcases beautiful layers of sound on their recordings, the strength of their live performances lies in their energy and dynamic sound. The band is characterised by their melodic, lo-fi pop where the guitar takes the lead.
