Perth rock band Ragdoll has just dropped an electric new single “Follow the Leader,” and it’s a straight-up instant classic. It’s got that timeless feel of an anthemic stadium rock track with a little ‘90s grunginess and a fresh feel that ensures it never feels like a throwback. I can also attest that it sounds at its very best when you crank your speakers way up.
“Musically we wanted Follow the Leader to capture the live energy of a Ragdoll show, and that has as much to do with the way the song sounds as the way it feels,” explained the band’s guitarist Leon Todd. “I personally feel these are some of the very best vocals Ryan has done to date, and the way he and Cam play together as a rhythm section really gets to shine on this song. Plus, I’m totally addicted to that main riff!”
Ragdoll aren’t used to sitting still. They played countless shows since setting out in 2015, including the Rocklahoma festival, a support slot for Skid Row at the Whisky a Go Go, and gigs in Europe and Australia. Hopefully it won’t be too long before we see them back on stages doing what they do best.
