The Rank Deluxe
Fatcat
INDIE
THE RANK DELUXE's latest offering, 'The Rank Deluxe EP', pulls together the three limited edition SOLD OUT 7"s that were previously released.
An atypical indie outfit by any standard, The Rank Deluxe share as much of an affinity with Grime or Old School UK punk as they do with any of their more immediately apparent musical contemporaries.
The band are due to make their US debut in November in New York at two FAT CAT RECORDS showcases alongside THE TWILIGHT SAD, NINA NASTASIA, TOM BROSSEAU.
Informed by reggae, ska, punk, and rock and roll, The Rank Deluxe's sound is vibrant, pop savvy and uncompromising. Varying in style from cathartic pop to stabby, dub rhythms, lyrically the band align themselves with the social commentary of UK-based artists such as THE SPECIALS, GANG OF FOUR, or even IAN DURY.
The band's name is taken from a glamour model's comment, overheard entering a strip club above the band's old rehearsal space. "This place is so rank deluxe", she said; apparently meaning the height of scum.
