Scottish quartet To Catch A Thief are fast becoming a seriously exciting proposition. With a sound that encompasses riff-based heaviness, massive melody and emotionally charged intensity, they are like a distillation of what makes modern guitar based music thrilling.
The proof of this can be seen in 'Curious Tales and Fierce Beasts' (the band's third EP), due for release on August 10 2009 on Colour In Records. Building on the success of both 2008's 'Your Eyes Will Burn' and 2007's eponymously titled EP's, this five tracker is a jaw-droppingly accomplished record.
i'm intrigued, tell me more...
i'm done reading, minimise that shit.
Produced with startlingly clarity and power by Romesh Dodangoda (Funeral For A Friend, Kids In Glass Houses), the five tracks all display an uncommon maturity and depth. 'Not Guilty' is a driving anthem layered with intricacy and performed with the deftest of touches. (And possessed of the kind of chorus that musical empires are founded on!).
'1000 Miles Away' is a gentle invocation that ebbs and flows until suddenly bursting into a goose bump inducing climax.
And 'The Hunted', capably demonstrates the band's addictive blend of passion and aggression.
"We couldn't be happier with the new record," says frontman Ali Lane, "We've really moved forward, developed our sound, and written the record we knew we were capable of writing. We couldn't have written the songs that we have without playing the amount of shows we have done in the last 2 and a half years, and without going through the natural progression that we have done."
Indeed the band have readily embraced the age old ethos of 'make it happen on the road'. Lengthy tours have honed and sharpened their sound immensely. And the band have no intention of stopping anytime soon.
"As far as the future goes, we'll keep touring as much as we can and hope people are into this record. We wanted to write a record that people will fall in love with and I think we've done that."
