Full disclosure: Homostupids are my favorite rock band in the world as of the printing of this. Both live and on record. This 'Cat Music' EP could be their best vinyl since 'The Glow', and that's some real talk from a dude like me. "Beneath the Blackman" is perhaps their most majestic piece since "Mr. Payback", nearly beautiful in it's ear-clinging deliciousness. "Elves Children's Choir" will rampage through your living room like an army of small children off their adderrall and hopped up on Reese's Pieces. And don't get me started on the B-Side of "Fang Vs. Keyman"...a fucking anthem to nothing if there ever was one. Riveting, and it's backended by a small horn ensemble covering "Sixths". Sheer fucking genius. Someone give these guys the Nobel fucking prize already. Whereas Clockcleaner have apparently succumbed to the pressures of playing Skull Music, Homostupids seem to be getting stronger from it. This record is making me sick...sick of other bands.
