HEAVY FOKS x DIVE presents

RICKSHAW BILLIE'S BURGER PATROL

Plus special guests THE BIG HELL

Rickshaw Billie's Burger Patrol is a Doom Wop band, from Austin, TX, and we are incredibly honoured to have them hit up Wolverhampton on their 2025 European tour, for their first ever UK appearance and only UK headline show on this run, ahead of their set at this year's Desert Fest London.

Hot on the heels of their breakout 5th studio release Doom Wop (2023), Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol returns with Big Dumb Riffs: A whole new variant of the fuzzed out, overdriven, melodic, groovy music they have been making since 2016.

While Big Dumb Riffs is decidedly more aggressive and rhythmic, it still retains the overtly melodic feel of Doom Wop. But Leo Lydon’s vocals are considerably more angry and negative (song titles like “1-800-EAT-SHIT” and “Body Bag” should be a clue.)

Across 11 concise, taut songs — most clocking in around 2 minutes or less — Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol demonstrates their skillful ability to blend the merciless low end of Leo Lydon’s 8-string guitar, Aaron Metzdorf’s masterful chordwork on the bass, and Sean St.Germain’s driving drumming.

Big Dumb Riffs is available on LP, cassette and streaming, released March 2024.


"Epically catchy... Imagine the ear-wormy fuzz-rock riffage of Dinosaur Jr. if it was played on an eight-string guitar with super heavy low-end." – Revolver Magazine

“An instant earworm. I mean, I’ve been telling everyone within ear shot to just whip it all the way around town… It really seems like these guys don’t have a pretentious atom in their bodies. It’s all in service of the riff, the groove, and doing whatever the fuck they want. And that shit’s awesome.” – Metal Sucks
