The release of the self-titled debut EP from acclaimed LA-based band Wildcat! Wildcat! is set for today, September 10 on Downtown Records.

The band garnered critical praise for their previously released sold-out limited addition 7" on the taste-making label Neon Gold Records, including early support from BBC Radio 1 in the U.K. TIME raves, "I love the staccato electronic rock, I love the frantic opening measures, I love the fleeting falsetto in the background," while Metro furthers they're "the best overall new band." The latest track "Garden Grays" is streaming now at Stereogum who explains "this band looks poised to beast out on the summer festival circuit for years to come." Full track listing on reverse.

Feed the Beat music program have released a new documentary titled "Hello Everywhere." Directed by Sam Jones, the film follows Wildcat! Wildcat! and Passion Pit throughout SXSW 2013, documenting their experiences at the festival-one as an emerging, developing band and the other as a more established band. The film premiered on VEVO after the MTV VMA's. View it here: http://bit.ly/18fATKx.

The new EP was written and produced by the band in their home studios over the course of the last year and a half. Of the songs Jesse Carmichael (vocals, drums) notes, "Some came quicker than others but all of them provided us the time to try out different processes of collaboration and understand how and why we make the kind of music that we make together." To celebrate the release, the band will embark on a nationwide tour starting in September including select dates with MSMR. See reverse for details.

Wildcat! Wildcat! is Jesse Taylor (vocals, bass), Michael Wilson (vocals, keys) and Carmichael. The trio played together in various incarnations before officially forming Wildcat! Wildcat! in 2012.
