The Fat Angel Sings

Some fast and furious rock ‘n’ roll riffs are delivered here on ‘Mr. Brown’, the debut single from Proletariat.

Released last April, it is the first cut from the Mossley, Manchester band’s debut EP ‘Always The Same’, A live favourite, ‘Mr. Brown’ offers some blistering punk guitar riffs that augment the sharp grungy vocals that could have come straight from the 70s, mixed with a dose of Noughties’ Slaves.

In a recent interview, vocalist James Cummins said of the song, “‘Mr. Brown’ is the demon that lives in all of us,” adding: “A lot of people think that it’s about heroin, but I can’t say that, at the age of 20, any of us have delved into it so it’s definitely not about that.”
