Along with bands like Pg.99 (with whom they shared members), Majority Rule, Planes Mistaken For Stars and others, they helped develop a style of music that took hardcore into convulsive new territory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter years spent living in other parts of the country and playing in other bands—including Darkest Hour, Malady and Ghastly City Sleep, the long awaited \u003cstrong\u003eCITY OF CATERPILLAR\u003c\/strong\u003e reunion shows snowballed into writing sessions. The result - \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMystic Sisters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e, an album that recaptures the magic of old while taking the band’s music into exciting new territory! The winding and atmospheric title track that embodies \u003cstrong\u003eCITY OF CATERPILLAR's\u003c\/strong\u003e experimental side features some noise violin from Evans’ former Pg. 99 bandmate Johnny Ward, while tracks like \"Decider\" and \"Paranormaladies\" showcases the band's roots with a flurry of viceral, noisey hardcore swagger.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracked primarily at Montrose Recording in Richmond, \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMystic Sisters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e was self-produced by the band and then mixed and mastered by Jack Shirley (Deafheaven, Bosse-de-Nage).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUltimately, \u003cstrong\u003eCITY OF CATERPILLAR\u003c\/strong\u003e are more concerned with creating a mood than telling a story. “The band is always focused on mood,” Evans confirms. “To me, that’s the most important thing. I don’t really want people dissecting what we’re trying to say, because it’s not really about us. It never has been. What we cared about 20 years ago was innocent, raw emotion, and that’s what we care about now.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Relapse Records","offers":[{"title":"Baby Pink","offer_id":55071996543295,"sku":null,"price":22.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0992\/4739\/1039\/files\/coc.jpg?v=1786114000","url":"https:\/\/mobiusrecordsalx.com\/products\/city-of-caterpillar-mystic-sisters-lp","provider":"Mobius Records ALX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
