Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes Announce Indefinite Hiatus
Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes have announced an indefinite hiatus, marking the end of an era for one of the UK’s most fiery and dynamic bands. In a heartfelt statement, the band reflected on their nearly decade-long journey, writing:
“9 years, 5 albums, hundreds of stages shared all over the world, and our songs sung with each and every one of you. It is with sadness we announce that The Rattlesnakes are taking a hiatus.”
Frontman Frank Carter and guitarist Dean Richardson, the powerhouse duo behind the band, have pushed boundaries in the alternative music scene with their visceral performances, fierce sound, and raw emotionality. Their most recent release, Dark Rainbow, received career-best reviews and marked their fourth UK Top 10 album.
Reflecting on their career, the band’s statement captured the emotional highs and lows of their journey:
“From the deepest lows to highest highs, in grief, anger, and in joy, our band has been a celebration of being alive no matter the circumstances.”
