RIFLE - Rifle - LP - Black Vinyl [JAN 16]

LP - Standard Edition Black Vinyl. 

Rifle is a punk band from London. Dragging gut-punch proto-punk through the byways of anarcho and UK pub rock, Rifle is the sound of revenge yelled by the damned sons of London's borderlands. These boys are battered, kicked in, cut loose, and furious.

Initially, Max and Ross bonded over music at their dead-end jobs, eventually meeting after work in Camden to commit sonic atrocities until the small hours. Rifle formed gradually like a demented social club, completing the lineup with Flynn, Albert and Louis as the party grew louder and more sordid with each session.

After laying down some demos, it wasn't long before they found themselves supporting London group The Chisel, and Australian shed rockers The Chats, proving quickly that their bite is far worse than their bark. Since bludgeoning the European festival scene at Reading and Leeds, Venezia Hardcore Fest, Rebellion, and Sjock, Rifle have gone from strength to strength, always sharpening their edge for what comes next.

Rifle's debut album is released by Stockholm's YEAR0001 label. The self-titled LP gathers their first singles alongside several new cuts, evolving their sound with even more punch and screeching feedback. Rifle's political charge is stronger still, with No King, Protest and United State taking aim and harnessing their anarchic drive to destroy the hateful institutions around them. Rifle's debut album is just the first step toward their rowdy world domination.
