    Rat Scabies has a new album out in May. I've heard the demos - quite trippy some of it

    Do you have any idea what Rat's contribution here is? Aside from I assume playing drums, who else is in the band, who wrote the songs, music, lyrics, etc, what else they all did before, and so on? I liked that first single a lot more than I thought I would.

    He play everything, bar a few of the vocals. He's quite nifty on guitar and bass, plus uses logic audio quite a bit for editing and mixing. not too sure what he uses for synths

    Flipron's Jesse Budd is doing vocals on the single and he might have put in a guitar ... though Im pretty sure he was saying on facebook he just done the vocals. There was tons of free stuff up on ratscabies.com a while back, including the demos of the album

    Floating, It Feels Like Sunday, Dazy Bones and Floydian Slip are brilliant. The remainder are just very good (and not what you'd expect)

    He's using one of his own cigar box guitars in that too

    Go to 1.07 and he plays the single on the cigarbox
