Rat Music for Rat People

[edit]

Surely, the name is a reference to the label's earlier Fat Music for Fat People, not Rat Music for Rat People. The first compilation might have been a reference to RMFRP, but more likely it's a reference to Bad Music for Bad People. Or perhaps it's just a common pattern for album names?

It's pretty obvious it's a play on Fat Music for Fat People, which itself is a play on the earlier Bad Music for Bad People and Rat Music for Rat People. The whole "___ music for ___ people" thing is a longstanding punk rock in-joke. --IllaZilla (talk) 01:28, 9 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
