The Cat Empire are an Australian band with an often varied line up. They have 6 core members (including two lead singers) but often employ dozens more when playing live. They're one of those unique bands who are impossible to be pigeonholed into genres - They're a band you simply have to listen to. They have four albums, and they've recently announced they've started work on a fifth, to be released sometime next year.

Discography

The Cat Empire (2003)
Two Shoes (2005)
Cities: The Cat Empire Project (2006)
So Many Nights (2007)
Cinema (2010)


Without further ado, some select songs from their album So Many Nights:









I think it's brilliant music, and they're my 15th highest played band. (according to last.fm) But what are your opinions?

Silly, I'd put it in the Off Topic Lounge if that were the case ;)

But speaking of cats, their official logo is quite cool:

Aunt Matilda was always give to overstatement when it came to fashion. She still cooks up the best catnip brownies though!

Re: The Cat Empire

Two Shoes would be the album to look for, the title song was featured in an American TV show, which is probably more international exposure than any of the others :tongue:

If it helps, the covers for their albums look like this:

And if all else fails, they're on Amazon.com :grinthumb
