Our buddies at Roach Records just gave us a little treat to tide the hesher within for a little while. They just reissued the 1980 LP from White Boy and The Average Rat Band and it’s one for everybody. White Boy hailed from Baltimore [home of all the best rats, ya know] in the late 70s and early 80s and played loud, fast, Motorhead-y at times, distorted jams that were a full-on sensory blitzkrieg. It’s something you’ll definitely want to snatch up since Roach just did a pressing limited to 400 and it’s pretty tough to find otherwise. And from Mr. White Boy — “This ALBUM goes out to all the heavy metal rats everywhere with all the hope of an affirmative acceptance.” Amen, Mike. Scoop it here.
