Cat Rapes Bat – ‘Grease and Sugar’

Cat Rapes Bat – ‘Grease and Sugar’ (mp3)

DZ and Howl have thrown party rock back into the zeitgeist and I, for one, am thankful. I’m also of the firm belief that city-dwellers don’t know how to party anywhere near as hard as country bumpkins, so it’s only fitting that my new favourite party-rockers are from a place well outside the reach of reliable public transit.

Cat Rapes Bat are a three-piece from a little town on the Capricorn Coast called Yeppoon (ya mum’s poon!) and frankly, a breath of fresh air from a scene more used to metal bands of dubious quality.

Sure, they wear their influences on their sleeve, but this sort of music isn’t about innovation as much as it is about good times.
