Punk Vocalist and Lyricist
About Polly Madcattle
In the rain-slicked alley behind the Roxy in ’78, she spat a lyric onto a crumpled setlist that became the chorus of 'Rust & Riot', a song banned by two UK radio stations for its unflinching portrait of factory layoffs and teenage arson. Polly didn’t just scream over power chords; she weaponized vernacular, grafting Cockney rhyming slang into three-chord bursts, slipping Marxist critique into snarling couplets about stolen lunch money and broken guitar strings. Her mic cord was wrapped in barbed wire during the ‘Anarchy Audit’ tour, not as gimmick but as literal barricade against security trying to cut her off mid-verse. She co-wrote the ‘Sewer Press Manifesto’, insisting liner notes be screen-printed on recycled bus tickets, and refused soundchecks unless the stage crew got equal billing. Her voice wasn’t raw, it was calibrated: a rasp honed by chain-smoking filterlesss and shouting over diesel generators at squat gigs where the bass amp doubled as a heater.
