I haven't seen them yet myself but I've only heard great things about catl when they tear through their songs on-stage. One listen to their latest album With the Lord for cowards you will find no place suggests that they must be a killer live band; with a musical connection to Charley Patton, the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, and Hot Snakes among others, these songs sound like they were custom-built to melt your face, slap your soul, and rock your socks off.
For all of our musical merriment today, I've chosen a song with a sentiment that I can totally get behind, despite the fact that I am incredibly lazy. This is Toronto's catl with 'Workin' Man's Soul!" Dig it!
catl play Toronto this weekend, at the Dakota Tavern (249 Ossington) on Friday January 14th and the Monarchs Pub (33 Gerrard St. W.) on Sunday January 16th.
