about

Out today, Rats On Rafts’ new single 'Osaka' is the
follow up from their new album ‘Excerpts From
Chapter 3: The Mind Runs A Net Of Rabbit Paths’
which is released ahead of their upcoming UK 2021
tour.
Taking inspiration from a brief visit in Osaka touring
with Franz Ferdinand, ‘Osaka’ is an awayday with a
difference that echoes Robert Smith while we reach
a warp speed space rock trajectory. A track from
the new album’s outtakes, it’s an anthem for a
mighty city and, as tour guides to future hybrid
sounds go, Rotterdam’s Rats On Rafts give new
meaning to the concept of a “TRIP” advisor.
“The song has become one of our favourites to play
live. The music video was recorded live as part of
our music film for ‘Visions Of Chapter 3..’. Because
of restrictions it was impossible to play our new
album live so we recorded a live show in which
many different art forms are combined. We always
wanted to create a live music-video with an
arranged feel, the music, dance, visuals - it’s all
live!” David Fagan
Recorded at Tivoli by A Small Production company,
Rats’ fully charged new live video bursts with their
energetic and trademark sound. The excerpt is
taken from their recent live performance film
‘Visions Of Chapter 3’ that aired earlier this year.
A great taste of what to expect on tour, Rats On
Rafts have recently played a number of live shows
across the Netherlands. You can catch them live
touring the new album across the UK in early
December along with a run of tour dates in the
Netherlands during early 2022.

about

Rats on Rafts Rotterdam, Netherlands

The band swear spiritual allegiance to the Rotterdam's New Wave, Pop and Punk scenes with one proviso, the weirder the better.

Rats have been together for a few years and, after boring themselves into finally getting good, they embarked on a phase which is slowly seeing them recognized as something a bit special by their own countrymen.
