Seattle rock band THE CATHETERS have already, despite their tender age (they're only a couple of years outta High school), released one full-length and a handful of singles, and spent time on the road with the likes of THE MURDER CITY DEVILS, MUDHONEY and MOTORHEAD.

An auspicious beginning, but nothing that even hints at the rock captured on the new record.

It's an album that elevates and obliterates in one motion - shaking either fist or ass in the face of our collective mortality.
