Cat on Form: Get Southern
sean by Sean Adams February 7th, 2003
Brighton melodic shouty punks/noize'ists/goodness that is CAT ON FORM, have signed a deal and play a whole heap of shows...

In a mailout from the highly ethicial foursome, there is news that they've signed a recording contract with SOUTHERN RECORDS home to Godspeed!, Fugazi (who they're oftly lazily compared to) and lots more.

The band had this to say about the deal:
"..this should be the start of a long and beautiful relationship which ends with us all striding off into the sunset happily."

There's also news their self-produced debut album will be out in June - once they've recorded it in Southern Studio's. We can safely say they're one of the best live bands we've seen in a long while. You can catch them touring next week with the pAper chAse and some brilliant supports...

February 2003
13th Bath Moles + Stanton
14th Joseph's Well, Leeds + This Ain't Vegas
15th The Cavern, Exeter + the murder of rosa luxemburg
16th School of Art, Glasgow + Lapsus Linguae

And some extra dates without pAper chAse..
22nd Buffalo Bar, London + kaitO + future ex-wife
7th March Upstairs @ Garage, London + Silver Rocket Clubnight to 2am.

Catch 'em if ya can.

I'll leave you with a rant from their mailout for good measure... "second there is an anti war march on feb 15th in various cities across the country. i'm not gonna waste time explaining the case against war because any one that i call HUMAN knows and understands why killing people is wrong, let alone for reasons as shite as MONEY and POWER. taking a saturday off to stomp around and make our voice heard is hardly a lot to ask. for those who think it's not worth it, you suck - women never got the vote by sitting on their arses and black slaves never got liberated by saying "what's the point". we can change EVERYTHING and never stop believing that. now c'mon, GET UP!"
