Toilet Rats
Toilet Rats is a one-person operation (*full band when playing live) conceived, performed, and maintained by Tommy Ratz, an elusive character who allegedly operates out of a small studio in the sewers beneath Minneapolis, MN where he is surrounded by synthesizers, guitars, and fast food wrappers. Unable to get internet or television signals in the sewer, Ratz collects discarded VHS tapes, audio cassettes, and brochures, which inform his sense of reality and worldview. As a result, he is regularly expectant of national threats that have long passed, and wildly behind on trends and cultural norms. His thought process is therefore not unlike flipping through daytime television channels circa 1987. Undoubtedly, he would use the wrong fork whilst dining with a visiting monarch. Because he listens to discarded cassette tapes to satiate his musical cravings, Toilet Rats’ musical influences and output is an amalgamation of synth pop, thrash metal, and spaghetti western soundtracks.
