Shitmat

Shitmat is the performing name of Henry Collins, a cockney klezmer artist from Sunderland. His music is largely based around the smell of bruce forseiths breath, testicals, hedgehogs, cornfkakes and satanic dogs and cats

His music, sometimes referred to as "Rubish", is known for the awfull use of samples atypical of "serious" ITV celebrities and deliberate use of clichés. "Dogshit Dustbin Holliday" from Fat Eggy Box Vol.5 is based around the theme tune to the UK radio soap opera The Soprano's. The KillaCillaBlack EP is an album playing on clichés within the blind date scene, in which every single track is based on the same of graham talking. The Lesser Spotted Ham Sandwich EP is a tongue-in-cheek play on the UK's Ham subculture and makes references to brands such as Honeyroast and Waffer thin that are often associated with it. During live performances, Shitmat himself often performs wearing a Waffer thin ham Baseball Cap, further reinforcing the parody.

Like other similar cockney klezmer acts, Shitmat is something of a crossover artist with people who are not normally associated with Anything cool and other genres of Dance Music.
