Catalysts – You Got No Soul (2021)
There are many people who seem to take and take without giving anything back. If you have someone like this in your life, Catalyst has the perfect anthem for what you might be feeling in ‘You Got No Soul’. A punchy single that hits out at people who constantly take while getting you to think about who you have around you, this track is packed with the energy you need right now.
Through the pushback of the single, Catalysts continue their unique view of life and their takes on a variety of subjects and relationships. Following on from their previous releases, the band hooks you into their innovative sound while pumping you to bursting with their energy. Using a rather fearless approach, they hold nothing back as they unleash everything we all wish to say but never find the courage to.
‘You Got No Soul’ thrums into your soul with the opening guitar riff that leads you into a burst of instrumentation. The guitars in the low levels vibrate in your chest with an almost dark contained energy that threatens to burst at any time. Resting over this is an almost dreamy twinkle that brings a new edge to the track. All of this drops for the push of the chorus that is anthemic and flies through your spirit, raising it with the energy of the band. The ebb and flow of the melody gives you a chance to consider the people around you before you hit out in the chorus.
As you ride the waves of the melody, the vocals hit all those indie rock itches that you have. The shouting push that opens the vocal performance has you filled with the energy of the track. This flows perfectly into the more tender movement on the verses which matches that dreamy higher line of the melody. This movement is enhanced by the melody and really gets you listening to the lyrics which are well worth some consideration. When the chorus hits, you are going to feel the urge to sing along because the energy of the band can’t be denied.
Catalysts punch through your senses with a blast of melodic rock while getting you to consider the people you surround yourself with in ‘You Got No Soul’. The melody and vocals rise and fall over the verses and chorus to enhance the punch of the lyrics. There is a catchy energy that fills every space in your chest that has you shouting out with the band on the chorus while thinking about what they have to say in the verses.
