RISKEE AND THE RIDICULE
Incendiary grime punk band Riskee & The Ridicule return with their new album, Platinum Statue, via RingOf Fire Records. For more than a decade, the band has released music with a rich history of focused scathing attacks onworld politics yet this time around they decided to look more inwardly. Concentrating on the broadinfluences that each of the five members (Scott Picking - Vocals, Jimbo Aglony - Guitar & Vocals, JordanMann - Guitar & Vocals, Ben Maz - Bass, Matt Verrell - Drums, keys & Vocals) bring to the band, theyallow these to breathe and lend to an album full of collaboration and brotherhood. By letting their individual inputs dictate the music, Platinum Statue explodes at break-neck speed into an innovative force of an album that tackles mental health, how to cope and the UK music scene. The first taste of this was their caustic and brutal single "My Name", an anthem dug from the dirt of the underground, dedicated to the music industry and every snake within it. Elsewhere “How I Feel” is aboutcarrying on a party way after the party has stopped - both literally and metaphorically - and the anxietiesthat come with the hangover of a good time but wanting to keep it going, for better or worse.
Having released critically acclaimed albums Dawn Of The Dog, Blame Culture, Body Bag Your Scene andtouring fesivals and headline shows extensively across the UK, Europe and America, (including Rebellion,Mighty Sounds (CZ), The Fest (USA), Manchester Punk Festival, Boomtown Fair, Bearded Theory andmore) the band is renowned for their relentless energy which is now made concrete on Platinum Statue.The dials are turned up all the way and everything Riskee & The Ridicule were previously known forreaches ferocious new energy levels. Catch them on tour in the UK and Europe now.
