Kent Grime-Punks Riskee And The Ridicule drop a devastating three-track E.P designed to inflame inspire and ignite. A stunning cover of Lana Del Rey’s ‘Young And Beautiful’ shows a slightly more mainstream side to RATR but the power in Scott Picking’s vocal delivery keeps the cut bleeding. ‘Blue Jacket’ should be played on national radio every day if only to annoy the readers of the Daily Mail/Express and Telegraph. The anti-Brexit track could crack the thickest of right-wing skulls. Final cut ‘Backwords 2’ chopping guitars hurtle into razor-sharp street poetry lyrics while the drums pummel the body of misplaced nationalism. Riskee And The Ridicule just continually drop lethal musical bombs and hopefully one will quickly hit the mainstream, right between the fucking eyes.
