Western Australia’s RATSALAD. return with Pest From The West, a loud, fast and fiercely honest punk record rooted in life on the coastal fringes.

Written in Geraldton (Jambinu, Southern Yamatji Land), the album captures the chaos, humour and community that shape the band’s world. Across the record, RATSALAD. balance tongue in cheek storytelling with more personal moments, taking aim at everything from the absurdity of modern housing prices to identity, belonging and growing up far from the spotlight of major cities.
