Throbbing Mattress Kitten is an innovative non-collective of musicianship. TMK or "El Gatito del Colchón que Palpitaba" is best known for having a name that can not be safely typed into a search engine by your grandmother. (do not click this)

The first recorded material from Throbbing Mattress Kitten appeared in 1997 after the band spent nearly a year in Daegu, Korea.

The next album may have been christmas 1999. A close friends and family run with lots of good songs. Some of these songs contain guest appearances by members of Anatone.
The next album was an instrumental album, occuring on the heels of the studio aquiring a drum set. All of the tracks were recorded in 8 tracks or less, thus the title 8 track inbred band. The piano figures more heavily on this album after TMK was able to aquire a stage piano to donate to the studio. One of the highlights of this album is dance
