SmackRats

MyGenProfile Generator



To put it simply, in yer face punk from the crack village rockers.



It not about what we are, (if you wanna see that then get your arse down to a gig and you'l see) it about what we not; we’re not shitty toe gazin' band who don’t giv a shit about what we do or play

We’re a group of best mates playin what we love, getting in your face, bein' as loud/lairy/brash/snotty as possible and beating the crap out of our singer every chance we get. (someone has to keep him in check!). we try and help out anyone we can and if there's anything we can do to help giv us a shout. support your scene!



We’re not your normal band and definitely not your normal show; keep an eye out for us at a venue near you soon.

"This 4-piece punk band attempt to take you back 30 years to try and show you what punk was really like!”

- The County Bar, Lancaster University



"SmackRats go down as the punkest show of the day, all stage antics aside (and their was an abundance of that if you consider the front man singing infront of the barrier, dry-humping fans and rolling around a la iggy) they play a great set and are pretty damn tight which is impressive, as I would've stopped just to watch the front man."



"A new band to me whom I had checked out on their myspace page so i knew a couple of their songs. What I didn't know though was how manic the front man was going to be. If you want a quiet night relaxing and listening to some background music don't come to a Smackrats gig but if you want to be accosted, humped like a dog on heat, poked and tied up with a mic lead this is the band to see. The crowd is as much part of the show as the band while his bandmates encouraged the crowd to chin him he just carried on getting in the faces of everyone within reach.The music was spot on as well which included a Rancid cover and a 100mph version of Cock Sparrers 'We're Coming Back' amongst their own stuff. A quality set and then they gave away a load of CD's - a class act indeed"

Headliners the SmackRats were a real riot! The singer spent more time screaming in the ears of crowd members than on the stage. Their in-your-face hardcore punk went down well and they crucified a version of "Walking On Sunshine"! The set ended with a big pile-up with the demented singer right at the bottom. Noisy, brash, lairy, punk as fuck!
