The wait is over!! “Not Asking For Much”, the brand new LP from RAT CAGE has landed at Sorry State HQ!

A decade later, and Sheffield’s finest continue to deliver potent and powerful hardcore! 10 brand new ripping tracks blending the fury of Scandinavian hardcore and the anthemic melodicism of UK punk classics!

We’ll be shipping out your pre-orders ASAP, and appreciate your patience. And if you haven’t ordered this crusher yet, get on it! Pink “rose” color vinyl is almost gone! Sorry State also has copies available in-store at our brick and mortar location now.
