Rock N Roll Gutter
Welcome to the Rock & Roll Gutter Podcast! Music from the wrong side of the tracks! Your hosts, Andy and Gary, will drag you through the gritty world of sleaze rock, gutter glam, and all forms of dirty Rock and Roll. If you’re a fan of Hanoi Rocks, Dogs D’Amour, D-Generation, Hollywood Brats, or The New York Dolls, this is a podcast for you. Join us twice a month as we celebrate the bands that pushed the boundaries of good taste, and have a few laughs along the way.

S2-Ep 6: The Hollywood Brats - From Almost-Famous to Absolutely Infamous
Before punk had a mohawk and before glam got glossy, there were The Hollywood Brats—the band that should have been the UK’s answer to the New York Dolls but ended up as rock ‘n’ roll’s best-kept secret. In this episode, we dive into the sneering, swaggering, and spectacularly doomed career of the Brats, a group so ahead of their time they practically time-traveled into obscurity.
From their reckless fashion choices to their run-ins with music industry apathy, we’ll unpack why their lone album (recorded in ’73, ignored until ’79) still sounds like a Molotov cocktail wrapped in leopard print. Were they glam? Proto-punk? Just really bad at networking? Tune in as we separate myth from mayhem and give The Hollywood Brats their belated street cred—though, let’s be real, they’d probably prefer a pint and a punch-up.
