   Yet another band being touted by Stu Taylor, RUST hailing from Austraila, deliver some fuckin' wonderful noise!!
   'Black Rats' is a seven-track masterpiece of pure punk power, played with a passion so lacking in some of today's
   bands. This is the template that you younger bands should follow...pure, energy, loud, fast and direct! 
   'Black Rats' the title track [ playing ] kicks your ass and sets the scene for the rest of the album..you know exactly
   what is coming next, like listening to an older Ramones album...never deviating from the winning formula!
   The production of this album is great, and captures the excitiement fo a RUST live show perfectly!
   These guys ain't fuckin' around - if you like your music delivered at speed, well played and fuckin' raucous, RUST
   won't let you down...and having that 'Spirit Of the Anzac' you know you're gonna get a full-on attack!
