Filthy Pedro on Channel 4
Channel 4’s new Transmission music show features Filthy Pedro’s Rock’n’Roll Points.
Following Lauren Laverne’s obsession with Filthy Pedro’s Rock’n’Roll Points on her XFM show, Filthy’s song and concept has been imported (or nicked) by Channel 4’s new music program.
Each week features a Rock’n’Roll score allocated to each act with a watered down version of Filthy Pedro’s Rock’n’Roll test (you can take the original Rock’n’Roll test at www.filthypedro.com).
The song, which can be downloaded for free at www.filthypedro.com features as the theme tune, while the man himself can be seen briefly throwing up on women and smashing guitars etc.
About the Author
Filthy Pedro is an Antifolk musician and founder of the British Antifolk movement. Some say he is over 10,000 years old and sees Antifolk as the evolution of folk music. Others say he is actually originally from Anglesey and first got into Antifolk when he realised the type of music he liked and made had a name.
