Hot News: Sweden’s We Are The Catalyst Video For “Tomorrow” Released Globally – November 18th

We Are The Catalyst are not your ordinary rock / alternative metal band, so it seems somehow fitting that their first official video should be directed by Grzegorz Jonkajtys, the extraordinary visual effects artist famous for his work on such epic movies as Transformers, Pacific Rim, Terminator Salvation, Star Trek Into Darkness and Sin City.

“Our management secured the partnership with Greg. We were huge fans of his work and so being given the chance to have him work with us was just amazing” said Kenny Boufadene, guitarist and co-writer from WATC.

The track „Tomorrow” is the second single from the bands EP PANEM ET CIRCENSES.  Singer Catrin Feymark shares, „The EP is really quite simply a taste of what’s to come.  A lot of fans of our previous band One Without had been begging for us to get some new material out, so we put out the EP literally as a stop gap before the 2014 release of our debut album BELIEVE IN EVERYTHING BECAUSE EVERYONE’S RIGHT.

As the band approaches 2014, We Are The Catalyst is in pre-production on additional music videos that are as striking as any on TV and the Internet.  The band will hit the road with an extensive European touring itinerary, alongside excursions to points across The Globe.

After several years of touring and releasing albums as members of the Swedish Modern Metal act One Without, both Catrin Feymark and Kenny Boufadene felt the need to do something different from what they had previously done both musically and ideologically. They formed We Are The Catalyst in Varberg, Sweden, in November of 2012.  The band released their first EP;  PANEM ET CIRCENSES on May 2nd 2013, and are now focusing on finishing their debut album with the working titleBELIEVE IN EVERYTHING BECAUSE EVERYONE’S RIGHT.  Amongst many themes covered within their repertoire, there is a specific intent to explore answers to the question, „With failing monetary systems, wide-spread poverty, millions of children dying every year in under developed countries, the continuing over-exploitation of our natural resources, and the always-charging-never-stopping war-machine, we have to ask ourselves; Is this the world we want to live in?”
