“Truth/Lie”: Citizen Rat’s Raw New Anthem
Citizen Rat, the electrifying punk rock band known for their raw intensity and vivid soundscapes, announces the release of their highly anticipated new single, “Truth/Lie,”
Following the momentum of their breakout track ‘Shut My Mouth’, “Truth/Lie” dives deep into the complex interplay between reality and perception. The song delivers a fierce yet nuanced exploration of the fine line between honesty and deception within our own minds. With blistering riffs, dynamic rhythms, and front man Dartanyon Hutchison’s signature vocal delivery, Citizen Rat confronts the uncomfortable truths we all wrestle with set against an unrelenting sonic backdrop.
‘“Truth/Lie” explores the inner battle of building false narratives about who you are. It’s about getting lost in the stories you tell yourself stories that isolate, distort, and blur your identity,” says Hutchison. “In the darkness of those lies, there's also a strange kind of safety. A shield. A coping mechanism. …a way to survive.”
Written under the watchful eye of scene legend Tom Eggert and producer Jordan Bain, the single is the latest step in Citizen Rat’s journey to break through the Australian heavy music scene, following their recent successful releases and packed live shows across Queensland. “Truth/Lie” is set to pave the way for
upcoming releases.
“Truth/Lie” is now available on all major streaming platforms. Fans can look forward to exclusive content and live performances to coincide with the release.
