The Rat Utopia Experiment Biography
The Rat Utopia Experiment is a band that can only exist because kids who grew up listening to their parents' Nirvana and MCR CDs and watching Fight Club, suddenly experienced the world around them falling apart in their most formative years. Informed by grunge, emo, and nu-metal and fueled by late-stage capitalist cynicism, this is music for disaffected youth searching for a greater purpose.
T.R.U.E. is a group of incredibly talented and ambitious musicians, despite (or maybe because) of her young age, 16-year-old Phia Lane possesses great lyrical prowess and a sophisticated understanding of composition. Their sound borrows from bands such as The Runaways, Kittie, Mazzy Star, Slutevr, and Sca.rling. Other influences include Sonic Youth and Stone Temple Pilots.
Somehow, these Rat kids have managed to take all of these disparate styles and genres and create something new and fresh. There is no other band that sounds like them. In Part maybe, but not in Whole.
The band performed in SoundOff! 2024, the premier 21-and-under music showcase in the Pacific Northwest, has been the KISW 99.9 Loud and Local Band of The Week, while receiving airplay on KEXP AND KISW, and is currently featured in a commercial for Puget Sound Energyand played Treefort Fest 2025!
