RAT MONKEY ARE A PUNK BAND FROM THE BLACK COUNTRY AREA OF THE MIDLANDS, NAMELY DUDLEY / TIPTON. IT WAS IN 2002 THAT PERCY (ENTROPY)STARTED JAMMING WITH TINKER (CUM TO BEDLAM) AND ENTROPY DRUMMER KEITH ROBINSON, WITH JUST HAVING A LAFF IN MIND. THINGS DIDN'T WORK OUT AS PLANNED AND THE LINE UP FIZZLED OUT, LEAVING TINKER AND PERCE TO SIMPLY DREAM OF STARDOM. THAT IS , UNTILL PIG THUNDERSTIX HAPPENED TO BUMP INTO TINKER AT A WALSALL FOOTY MATCH. HAVING PREVIOUSLY BEEN IN PUNK BANDS THUNDERBUG AND S.P.S , PIG WAS TO BE THE FINAL STAIN IN THE Y-FRONTS THAT NOW ADORN HIS BELOVED DRUMS.....AND RATMONKEY WAS BORN. REHERSALS BEGAN AT JAMJAR IN CRADELY HEATH, UNTILL A ROOM RENTAL BECAME AVAILABLE, SHARING WITH RUSS' MANY CHANGING TRIBUTE ACTS. GIGS SOON FOLLOWED...THE 2ND BEING A SUPPORT TO SHAM 69, WHICH LED TO PERCY BECOMING VISIBLY SHAKEN IN SUCH LEGENDARY COMPANY, AND LED OFF STAGE JAMES BROWN STYLE BY 2 NURSES......SERIOUSLY THOUGH....THE GIG WAS FUCKIN ACE. A DEMO WAS RECORDED AND FEATURED ON RICH LARD'S "MIDDLEGROUND" COMP CD AND ALSO "PUNKSHIT VOL 2" FEATURED OUR EPIC -DOLEDOSSER. MANY MORE GIGS FOLLOWED BUT IT WAS ALWAYS THE LAFF THAT REMAINED THE CENTER OF OUR AIM. CURRENTLY RECORDING ALL OUR MATERIAL AND MIXING IT IS TAKING UP MOST OF OUR TIME AT THE MINUTE....BUT.....IF YOU NEED A PUNK BAND, ARE WILLING TO PAY US ABOUT £50, AND IF YOU CAN FIND US , THEN MAYBE YOU CAN HIRE....RATMONKEY !
