Catheter Bio

CATHETER started in 1997 as a crustcore band with metal influences. There was a few line up changes in the first couple years. This lead to the first release Laughing Dog / Catheter split LP/CD and put Catheter one the grindcore map. The first East Coast tour in '99 with Laughing Dog was a success. Returning from the tour the second and third records were cut which was the debut 7" on Head Fucker Records and a split 7" with New Mexico's Fiendead. A 2000 US/Canadian tour followed and Catheter was well received. Returning from the US tour the split 7" with Black Market Fetus was released along with the 3 way split cd with TR and Sutek Conspiracy, various compilation tracks were recorded on Slap A Aam, 625 Prod., Putrid Filth Conspiracy which finally led to the full length "Preamble To Oblivion" CD/LP on Selfmadegod and 6 Weeks Records which was well received across the world and this gave Catheter the reputation as one of the top grindcore bands in the world.
In the meantine the band has done couple of split releases including CD/LP ones w/ F.U.B.A.R. (Holland) and BIRDFLESH (Sweden) and split 7" w/ UNHOLY GRAVE (Japan).
