about

Imagine some younger badass dudes all living in this gigantic house that's basically a hippy commune, put on punk and metal shows in their warehouse-sized basement, and play in a critical stoner/grunge/hardcore punk band. Well its reality, and its Richmond, VA's powerhouse dudesquad THE CATALYST.

These guys are light-years ahead of their time simply in "coolness" alone, but it doesn't hurt that their band fucking RULES. They're kind of like KARP if they were still around to tour with PG.99 and BOTCH, or NIRVANA if they'd been more into JIMI HENDRIX than THE MELVINS.

But these comparisons fail to do THE CATALYST the justice they deserve... simply put, this shit fucking sheds and these are only DEMOS. Imagine if this band actually does a full-length: it will be unstoppable.

The eight tracks on here are part old-songs re-recorded, part new-songs demoed and at least 1 exclusive song for this jam only. We love this band, check this shit out!
