Brody Dalle - Rat Race


Brody Dalle, who you might know from punk rock band 'The Distillers', or indeed alternative rock band 'Spinnerette', has recently released another music video for her solo song, entitled 'Rat Race'. The track is taken from her début solo album, Diploid Love, which was released earlier in the year in physical format and as a digital download in May and April, respectively. Kicking back to the alt rock vibe, Dalle shows she hasn't lost her touching for rocking rhythms and frantic pacing. 


The visuals are a suitable match, as Dalle gives off a particular electrified aesthetic, with flashing colours and effects present throughout the video. Think Scott Pilgrim meets Tron. Surprisingly, we actually enjoyed the video and it's effect suit the styling of the track and Dalle's striking vocals. With the instrumentals on an all-time-high, and Dalle's deep, catchy voice, 'Rat Race' is another winner for the singer, and it's certainly a track you should be checking out from her début solo album. 


Some of our favourite lyrics from the track include the uncertain 'I'm a sure fire assassin/ Not so sure of what I'm meant to do/ Am I meant to Kill? Am I meant to thrill?', which particularly caught our ear steeped over the heavy guitar and beats. Check out the hectic music video for 'Rat Race' below:
