The new album The Rat Road, released on May 5th, is SBTRKT's first project since 2016's "Save Yourself."
In a press statement, SBTRKT (real name Aron Jerome) spoke about the wide-ranging ideas behind his new music. "As humans, our moods are changeable,” he said. “We are still able to laugh amidst this collective anxiety. I’m tapping into how we feel about our role in climate change and the future, the politics of Britain, but also the music industry. You need all your wits about you to not get screwed over.”
