Wildcat! Wildcat!'s Debut EP to be Released, 9/10

The self-titled debut EP from acclaimed LA-based band Wildcat! Wildcat! is set for September 10 release 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." To celebrate the release, the band will embark on a nationwide tour starting in September including select dates with MSMR. See beow for details.
