> "Maybe, leastways is the best way of all" -Caterwaul Speaking of which, has anyone heard a status report on Caterwaul recently? Last I heard they had some prospects for a new record deal but that was quite some time ago. I was finally able to get a copy of their first, _The Nature of Things_. I was a bit disappointed since I don't think it even begins to measure up to _Pin and Web_ or _Portent Hue_. It's sounds to me like they hadn't quite nailed their style down yet. Betsy's vocals aren't up to their Caterwauling peak and they the lack of the the wonderfully busy little riffs on guitar makes the whole thing seem rather repetitive at times. The bright spot is _Diminuative Do-si-do_, which is entirely too short. Program it to repeat about four times. "Don't drive too slowly."
