RACKETT release their debut EP - Ready or Not. The EP features five tracks; BATS, Mama don't like him, Prey, Your Son and the title track Ready or Not.
Packaged by Mi-Wallet, this one of a kind, EP sleeve, is made entirely from up-cycled materials. Each sleeve is completely unique, hand-made and environmentally friendly.
The EP has been described by Rolling Stone Magazine as;
"Ready Or Not is the perfect sampler of the quartet’s unique trashy-pop sound; swaggering (“Bats”), swooning (“Prey”) and evoking sing-a-longs via the instantly catchy, snarling title-track closer. Sandwiched between this trio of previously released tracks, the quartet serve up disses of deadshit blokes from two different perspectives — as a direct character assassination (“Mama Don’t Like Him”) and taking the longer way ’round, laying blame at the parents on the harrowing “Your Son”. The latter being the standout on this diverse and impressive debut, delicately shifting from self-pity to empowerment, while blending humorous snipes (“did you treat him like a puppy?“) with unflinching jabs (“your son is a con, your son is a bad one, and I wonder where he got it from”)."
Recorded and produced by Dave Hammer at Def Wolf Studios (Sydney), and mastered by Brain Lucey (USA).
Includes unlimited streaming of Ready or Not
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics
My man is a mess!
My man is useless.
All he dies is drink and cuss.
My men's many women, calling at 2am.
Wondering when he'll be back.
He can be found down at the race track.
Mama don't like him.
Daddy don't like him.
He's got a bad reputation and a lack of education.
Even the dog don't like him.
My brother wanna kill him.
But I'm my knees, strictly devotee.
Singing Ahhh ahh ahh ahh.
My guy is a ghost.
As loose as a post-it note.
Blowing his load and go.
it's oh so typical.
My man is a criminal on the run.
Looking out for no.1
And my mama don't like him.
Daddy don't like him.
He's got a bad reputation and a lack of education.
Even the dog don't like him.
My brother wanna kill him.
But I'm my knees, strictly devotee.
Singing Ahhh ahh ahh ahh.
D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S
His disease is
D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S
And he push my patience
D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S
Please release me
And my mama don't like him.
Daddy don't like him.
He's got a bad reputation and a lack of education.
Even the dog don't like him.
My brother wanna kill him.
But I'm my knees, strictly devotee.
Mama don't like him.
Daddy don't like him.
He's got a bad reputation and a lack of education.
Even the dog don't like him.
We belong in the bin.
But I'm my knees, strictly devotee.
Mama don't like him.
