Catallaxy (Live)

Formerly known as We Sell Seashells - Leeds based 5-piece Catscans unexpectedly evolved in 2008 from the bindings of an 18th Century Hegelian manuscript. Beginning their lives as little more than bizarre micro-organisms, data indicates that it was only by 2009 that their musical energies were succesfully consolidated into a debut EP.

Months of rigorous trials saw Catscans explode into dynamic and volatile waveforms, producing sonic phrases and frequencies which were at once discrete and sublime; sonorous and dissonant; melancholic and uplifting. Subsequent test results fused into a raucous live spectacle bearing with them a second recording. Their 2010 EP, 'Be Excellent', simultaneously showcased a spectrum of abrasive and delicate tones via the tenets of Buddhism and Bill & Ted. 

The organisms known as Catscans comprise the following shapes: Jonny on guitar, vocals and discord; Chrissie on violiola, nyckelharpa and wanderings; Mike on guitars and spookiness; Tom on boom; and Roy on drums and hoots. Their debut album 'Amnesty' will be released Spring 2011, perhaps to cries of delight or shudders of confusion.
