Positive review of 'Defeated' by John Earls on p348. I'll type it out; no need to thank me too much
Macaca Mulatta
Defeated 7/10
"Formerly guitarist in Art Brut, Chris Chinchilla steps out front, backed by the bassist of decent punks Rhesus.
Chinchilla's vocals are an acquired taste - as strangulated as Carter USM, and ultimately equally loveable - and it's a frenetic rattle that drops his old band's deliberate ramshackle pose.
It also has the best swearing since Weller's C'mon Let's Go, so hurrah."

I wasnt the bass player in Rhesus and there is no mention of Ape Nads but it is not a bad review, Is anyone here reviewing the demo?

If you send the unsigned bands Ed a copy I'm sure he'll sort that out
Jim Rhesus- 07-31-2006
Is that you Liam?
Send an email to Chris@chinchilla-music.co.uk right now with the tital CD request for review, I am sure he will sort it pronto.

More Macaca Reviewing
Yes, and then I checked my email to find a short story in the form of a press release from a man with the exotic name of Chris Chinchilla (who was once of Art Brut), and for a moment I thought I would have to pack my bags again for another whirlwind trip to the Orient to dabble with red-haired British aristocrats adrift in a sea of imperial meaninglessness, but no! Instead I found myself listening to a demo of a band by the name of Macaca Mulatta, and the trip was not to the stifling heat of voluminous and threatening eastern gardens, but to stuffy and undersized city garages, where hearing your mate's neighbour's band roar through songs like 'Dancing on a Weeknight' makes you check your watch so as not to be late at the darkly-lit pub, where Paul Weller will play with the Dead Kennedys, and give out about governments and the price of a pint at the same time. And the pub stays open all night!
