Straight from Brisbane, here to pierce your ears, bruise your ego and compromise your morals, are Rick N The Sickos. You may have seen the three members of the band perform with their other/previous projects The Chats, The Unknowns and Headlice. As Rick N The Sickos, they concord a classic budget garage punk sound.
The band recorded the 14-song RNTS late 2021 in the midst of the pandemic, and it’s not a stretch to see the project as three friends blowing off steam. The track list reads like the P.M.R.C.’s worst nightmare, while the songs are classic budget punk, with a generous dose of garage punk. RNTS may find its origin in pandemic frustration and boredom, it sounds loud and pissed off. But its off the cuff vibe is appealing, and honestly, it also is pretty funny.
All in all, a pretty kickass record if you like your punk filthy! RNTS is out now on Bargain Bin Records.
