Rum Lad is an exciting singer, songwriter whose new album ‘Vandalism,’ spits and snarls without compromise as it observes life during a COVID-19 pandemic as well as reflecting back on a life that hints at having had its moments of difficulty.Â
Be in no doubt that here we have an album knocking lumps out of the current political climate, specifically a Conservative government that is looking down its nose at the working class and those who are vulnerable, like they are the shit on their shoe, and Rum lad isn't taking that lying down.
Vandalism, is a ferocious 10 track record that tackles the Tories with tracks such as 'Frauds' and ''Tory Boy'' while other songs such as ''Psycho' and 'Billy Bully,' delve into the characters that they represent. These are songs that get right to the point, leaving the listener in no doubt as to Rum Lad's disdain for politicians and the social injustice they have created for the working class of this country. Â
This is Rum Lads party political broadcast on behalf of the under dog.
Vandalism is available right now initially it was released as a digital download ONLY however there was a limited run of vinyl copies and if you're quick you may still be able to get one, full details on Rum Lads website here.
The vinyl copies were originally crowd funded and released on Rum Lads very own Shoplifter Records label which is remarkable really when you think he did all that during a global pandemic, which just goes to show that you can do anything if you are determined and put in the hard work.
A working class bloke Rum Lad describes himself as Indie Punk n Rolla hailing from Derbyshire UK, his songs are about real life, honesty, tragedy, romance & council estates.Â
