The Flatliners Release New Video for “Rat King”

Toronto’s punk king pins The Flatliners have released a new music video for their single Rat King, it can be seen below.

It is the third and final track to preview the band’s anticipated sixth studio album New Ruin, which will be released on August 5 through Dine Alone Records in Canada and Fat Wreck Chords in the US.. The album is available to pre-order/save here.

Singer/Guitarist Chris Cresswell described the song saying “Some things simply deserve to burn. The abuse of power and stark division that’s born from it should have no place left to thrive in our world, and yet it all still hides in plain sight. And for as much progress has been made in bringing people together, learning from each other’s differences, and creating a more positive world from those conversations, there are always those who personify taking two steps back. The tails of hate always intertwine to create quite the mess. Together we can unify against the ignorance and arrogance of the rat king.”

New Ruin is the follow up to 2017’s critically praised full-length Inviting Light.
