Fret Rattles are excited to announce the release of our third full-length studio LP, titled "As the World Falls Apart." It features thirteen tracks and comes in at the furious pace of 36 minutes. The LP was recorded in 2024 and 2025 at Flowers Studio (Minneapolis, MN) and Ecstattic Studio (St. Paul, MN) by our long-time producer Ali Jaafar.

 

We are just as excited to announce that this record will be co-released in Europe with the fantastic label Ghost Highway Recordings. It will also be available as a limited "Manifesto Edition" through Real Punk Radio's "Rock N' Roll Manifesto" show.

 

"As the World Falls Apart" captures the true full throttle energy of Fret Rattles with added fuel inspired by the volatile times we all live in. Vinyl and digital pre-sale details and release date coming soon!

 

You can listen and download the track "Plywood City" now on Bandcamp (along with 26 other killer bands) from the Ghost Highway 2026 digital sample link below. All proceeds go to charity.
