Cats On Fire - Dealing In Antiques

Cats on fire's Mattias Björkas "Dealing in Antiques is a comprehensive collection of Cats On Fire songs of various origins. Some of them were
brought down from the attic, and some of them up from the cellar. Some of them were simply brought forward to a more prominent place in the
house. Some of them were polished a bit, but I have to say, there's no use in polishing something that wasn't shining in the first place. We never
really had the means to make anything shine. But they were good songs. And they were ours.* *Except for the big, stolen mahogany piece in the
middle."

As well as old material that has been released on various EP's and singles, two new tracks appear on the collection, the download only track from last year ,"The Hague", and Cats on fire's version of White Town's "Your Woman". "No fog, only the fireworks that can happen between clean, pure unpedal-affected guitars and drums. Strong rhythms. Killer tunes. No new production tricks, a 50s radiance and shimmer with a 70s warmth and an 80s pose - down to what's important. " The Quietus
