EXCLUSIVE: Bootleg Rascal Announce New Album For Release This Year

Bootleg Rascal have announced that they'll have a brand new album out later this year. 

The Music can exclusively reveal that the Gold Coast duo will release their new album, Sloppy Seconds, on 29 October.

The album will include new singles All About You feat. Saint Lane and Therapy feat. Citizen Kay and MAXINE, as well as eight reimagined tracks from previous albums Asleep In The Machine and Anónimo, and EPs Psychotica and Collaborations Of Very Isolated Delinquents “19.

“When the world stopped, I started to really think about projects I’ve always wanted to do but never had enough time for. One thing on the bucket list was to have made a record which embraced the whole ‘something old, new, borrowed’ concept,” said guitarist Jimmy Young of the new album.

“Sublime was a big part of why I first started playing music in the first place and I still regularly reference them as part of the Bootleg creative process. Their album Second-Hand Smoke was a huge inspiration in bringing this idea to life. The record was released not long after frontman Bradley Nowell’s death and follows a similar concept where it shines a light on remixed and recycled tracks. 

"It really gives another perspective and take on some of their classics, and as a fan that’s something I really enjoy. Here’s hoping our fans feel the same."

To celebrate the announcement, Bootleg Rascal will share their new single Sharks (Remix en Español) this Friday. Stay tuned for more.
