REVIEWS:
“It’s difficult to resist the alluring whisper of “blue aquamarine / swim under with me”, especially in the midst of a sweltering February coastal heat and so it is with Catnip’s debut EP. This four-tracker from the Melbourne four-piece will have you diving down deep, drinking in their cool lucid beauty. “…Guitarist Richmond Brain puts in a stunning performance across all four songs. Displaying a refined versatility similar to the jagged snaky echo of Michael Timmins, the fluidity of Lou Reed and the steely late night blues of fellow Melbournian Matt Walker, Brain’s fretwork is a highlight of this outstanding release. If you’re a sucker, as I am, for music such as this (floating n’ pulsing, dark n’ sad without being morose), direct all enquiries to Melbourne.”
