Catholic Action are touring early next year in support of debut album, ‘In Memory Of’.
“It has songs that can be played on the radio and can be sung but can be enjoyed from a whole other point of view as well,” the band say of the record in the new issue of Dork, out now (order your copy here).
“My favourite bands do that perfectly, like Pavement or Sonic Youth. There’s always an experimental edge to it. The core of it is still a pop song. To be able to marry that with something interesting and bold is where it’s at.”
