The Go-Katz • Real Gone Katz CD

The Go-Katz fused the energy of Punk with the spirit of Rockabilly to create their distinctive sound that helped define the late 1980s UK scene. Their infectious blend of driving rhythms, memorable hooks and irreverent humour quickly earned them a loyal following, while their debut EP became the first release on the newly founded Raucous Records label.

Real Gone Katz brings together the complete original EP, compilation appearances and previously unreleased recordings, capturing the band's formative years in one essential collection. From the atmospheric opener Nightmare and the infectious Fine Thing Baby to favourites including No Gene Vincent, Real Gone Demented Hillbilly Kat and their cover of The Meteors' When A Stranger Calls, these recordings showcase the raw enthusiasm and originality that made The Go-Katz one of the standout bands of the era.

An important chapter in the history of British psychobilly, Real Gone Katz is essential listening for fans of the genre and a fascinating collection from the band whose debut EP became the first release on Raucous Records.
