About Me

BATTLECAT are a 3 piece hard rock tribe that exploded from the West coast of Australia.

They now call Melbourne home, and are gathering momentum quickly, for an all out assault on the national rock scene.The BATTLECAT live show continues to gather rave reviews and so far the guys have shared the stage with such artists as Grinspoon, Birds of Tokyo, Gyroscope, The Screaming Jets, Jimmy Barnes, Galvatrons, Dallas Crane and The Angels.Shortly, BATTLECAT will release their second, 6 track E.P which was engineered and mixed @ Couch studios in Fremantle, Western Australia by Shaun O' Callaghan (Eskimo Joe, Gyroscope, John Butler) and mastered @ Benchmark Mastering in Sydney, Australia by the legendary Don Bartley (Powderfinger, Silverchair, The Vines, Metallica)Rich, raw and melodic, and dripping with colour and energy, the BATTLECAT engine is tight as hell and built for maximum speed. With powerful and soaring vocals, thunderous rhythms and a damn catchy guitar riff, this is definitely one Aussie 3 piece to keep your eyes and ears on.... Their debut self titled E.P is available now from 78 Records, Mills Records, and Planet Video. For all band booking and general enquiries BATTLECAT can be contacted at [email protected] or via this myspace site!------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------
