......is solo artist Matt Prosac, whom, along with loops, samples and a loud guitar, provides a sound for pumped-up male egos on the slide, and for females with a gift for the perverse.
'...without a doubt one of the most genius one man acts I've seen in ages'.
(MOLES CLUB, BATH - www.moles.co.uk)
'Bath based Cabaret Rat is basically Motley Crue boiled down into an angry northern man with a guitar and a sampler...oh and unlike Motley Crue he understands irony, humour and self deprication...fantastic...' (PULP PROMOTIONS)
'...brilliantly curmudgeonly...'. (THE BATH CHRONICLE)
'You're not going to hear a lot of records like this'. (THE-MAG)
'SURF MONKEY' Live - St. James Wine Vaults, Bath, Mar 2007
(from the Live DVD 'Shambolic')
'LET'S WATCH PORN' Live
'Cabaret Rat is a solo artist. He stands there on his own with hardcore, industrial strength backing tracks and his guitar and has more presence and genuine drive than most that grace the Moles stage. Is anyone noticing yet?' (DECODE MAGAZINE - www.decodemedia.com)
"... - Big phat drums and screaming/ shouting vocals. Punked up rawk with a bit of a post Ministry feel, sample-ology, strange dialogue, even a dramatization of Jack and Jill going up the blinking hill...Butthole Surfers fans take note. Also Al Jourgensonisms aplenty, but when was that ever a crime?!!" BUGBEAR PROMOTIONS
hey! thanks for accepting means a lot you alright?? what you reckon to the t-shirts??:) thanks again ash-captivateclothing http://captivatedesigns.bigcartel.com
Not totally sure yet. It's a mate's thingy, she does Uni there...I think she's just tired of me bitching about the lack of good music played in the local Bath nights.
And nawh, no green vinyl ever happened. I feel mean now. I'm gonna go make a Cattle Ranch shirt or something to make me feel better. x
Any chance of letting me have final prod of rats of war...or preacher to play on my show?? Oh go on, I'm quitting in a few weeks...last chance offer for airplay live :)
Wotcha Matt. I played 'Rats of War' between Earl Brutus' 'Come Taste My Mind' and our own 'Closure' whilst DJing last Saturday night. They all went down very well.
Well you can fuck off for a start, I know the scene within your heart Well you can run around with that side of your life You seesaw, you jigsaw, you fuck around right or wrong You leave me raw you hideous child, habeas corpus Well get yourself back on the shelf ‘cause you’re well passed your sell-by date and no one wants to buy a runt when it all comes around too late You can see it all low down and I can see right through You’re no ghost but you are to me, habeas corpus So you think so much of me that you can just start to piss on me You take the piss, you wriggle and writhe and I don’t need any of your lip And you can’t see what’s going on, and I can sing it in this song Well you won’t know, I don’t know, you don’t know habeas corpus You got no right any more, you withdrew it when you walked out the door, you ain’t coming back; you ain’t coming back And I don’t need you any more because you make me snore Habeas corpus.
