   Those Rat Bastards are a street punk / oi! band from Brisbane, Australia who's debut 7" single will be released on April 1st by Spirit Of The Streets Records (on silver, red or black vinyl). They're a 3 piece featuring Cam Mitchell (drums/vocals), Craig (guitar/vocals) and Viktor Humi (bass).

  Unfortunately I know pretty much bugger all else about them (feel free to share any info you might have in the comments section) so I'll just post a link to their Facebook page... https://www.facebook.com/ThoseRatBastards/

  This is the video for the A side of the new single, Grind You Down...

When I was young I always dreamed of more.
I did my time on factory floors.
Making money to pay.
For those things that'd make me numb.
Every day it's the same old shit.
It doesn't take long to get sick of it.
What's the point in it all?
When you can't seem to get off the ground.
Chorus..
Some days you're gonna take the hits.
Hold fast and refuse to quit.
Keep fighting until you're dead in the ground.
Don't let the bastards grind you down
You think this year things are gonna change.
This time is ours no more need to complain.
But you get screwed over and it's back to no more fun.
One thoughtless second, one stupid error.
Now your life has changed forever.
It's a hard climb back
When you're always beaten down.
Chorus..
Some days you're gonna take the hits.
Hold fast and refuse to quit.
Keep fighting until you're dead in the ground.
Don't let the bastards grind you down.
When I was young I always dreamed of more.
I did my time on the factory floors.
Making money to pay.
For those things that'd make me numb
One thoughtless second, one stupid error.
Now your life has changed forever.
It's a hard climb back
When you're always beaten down
Chorus..
Some days you're gonna take the hits.
Hold fast and refuse to quit.
Keep fighting until you're dead in the ground.
Don't let the bastards grind you down
