Frank Carter isn't one to mince words, and on "I Hate You," from Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes' 2015 debut, Blossom, the former frontman for UK punks Gallows goes into detail about all the ways you disgust him over an acidic blues riff. Carter's voice has a weary pugnaciousness that implies that when he's around, a fight could break out at any moment, and his backing band give him a lean, caustic sound on pounders like "Vampires." But they can also nudge him toward dusky, cinematic balladry on "Snake Eyes" and get him to sound like he just might be enjoying himself on the jaunty alt-rock of "Lullaby."
