Rat Bastard

Hailing from North Okanagan, British Columbia, the art-punk quartet Mock Media has increasingly become a welcome reprieve from the self-seriousness of contemporary indie rock. Armed with a whip-smart humour, the band wears its influences on its sleeve, pulling inspiration from acts as eclectic as Bruce Springsteen, The Ramones, Bad Brains and Desmond Dekker, while simultaneously sounding entirely new. Mock Media have discovered a sound all their own, and release their forthcoming album Rat Bastard on Meat Machine.
