**BC’s Rat Silo Hits Hard New Single “Cantrustaman!**

“Revolution – Ha! It will never happen on my watch. People are weak – Too lazy to think – too scared to vote. Feed them enough garbage and they will learn to love the taste. No need for police when family members will rat each other out for a pair of jeans. Distract and bounce on their bumpy little heads, that’s what I say. Keep them away from Science and History. Keep big business in your pocket and let them make a ton of money. Tax the poor, worship the rich. Everybody has a price, and I already know what your price is. Talk is cheap. You’re fired, by the way. You got 20 minutes to get the fuck out of my building.” – Rat Silo

Biography

Rat Silo: /ratˈsīlō/ – noun Rat Silo is a remarkable musical entity that defies categorization, blending the sonic prowess of post-rock and punk with an ingenious fusion of disparate influences. The band consists of four highly talented individuals, each contributing their unique musical abilities alongside electronically enhanced acoustic instruments. The brainchild of Jim Newton, formerly a member of the renowned Canadian rock band Sons of Freedom, Rat Silo came into existence in 2007. Jim spearheaded the recording of their debut album, “What the Butler Saw,” during an intensive three-day session. Joining him were accomplished musicians Don Binns on bass (known for his work with Sons of Freedom, Trailerhawk, Econoline Crush, and Art Bergmann), Sean Stubbs on drums (renowned for his contributions to Numb, SNFU, Jakalope, and Bif Naked), Finn Manniche on guitar (a virtuoso from the Jazzmanian Devils and Van Django), and Dave Osbourne on keyboards (previously associated with 5440). The album was expertly produced and engineered by Mark Henning. Following their successful debut, Rat Silo ventured into their second album, “doubleplusungood,” recorded under the guidance of Rob Handel (of The Bad Beers) and mixed by the skilled hands of Mark Henning. This musical endeavor was released to critical acclaim in April 2009. Their third album, “The Great Northern Way,” marked another milestone for the band, recorded and mixed by the accomplished Dave Ogilvie. It captivated audiences upon its release in October 2011. In 2017, the band welcomed Erkan Gencol, a percussionist and electronic DJ based in Vancouver, who added a new layer to their sound with his mesmerizing loops and captivating noises. Since then, Rat Silo has continued to make their mark on the music scene, releasing three compelling singles: “I Sacrifice” in 2019, followed by “The World Is Going To End Tomorrow” and “Head On A Stick” in 2023. Additionally, they have gifted their listeners with two albums: “The World Is Going To End Tomorrow” in 2022 and “Unfortunately…” in 2023 all recorded by Dave Ogilvie, Liam Moes, and Mike Foster. Mixed by Anthony Valcic. These musical offerings showcase the band’s evolving artistry and their ability to push boundaries, delivering a powerful and immersive experience to their audience.
