The Briefs Announce New Album ‘Platinum Rats’

Punk rockers don’t age, they just get weirder, twenty years have zipped by and The Briefs are as frantic, energetic and snotty as ever. The band’s debut album, Hit After Hit, set out to destroy the new millennium’s flaccid alt-rock scene, and, in turn inspired two decades of raucous radioactive fallout. Sewing together a tattered tapestry of 70s-style punk, the iconic bleach blonde brutes have urged countless kids to grab a junk guitar, a pair of second-hand sunglasses, and a bottle of peroxide. Now, The Briefs are consummating a ten-year recording tease, their new single, Kids Laugh At You, is out now on Taken By Surprise Records and the band’s highly anticipated new LP, Platinum Rats, will hit the streets April 12th on Burger Records (US) and Damaged Goods (Europe).
