    Punk legends Babes In Toyalnd returned to the worlds stage in 2015 ending a 14 year hiatus with founding members Kat Bjelland and Lori Barbero reminding riot grrrl's and boys of all ages how to rock, with an extensive tour and high profile festival dates across the USA, Canada and Europe. This collection compiles Bjelland's two solo albums recorded under the moniker Katastrophy Wife released during that hiatus.

    Katastrophy Wife's debut Amusia'was released to highly favourable reviews following a UK live debut at Reading and Leeds Festivals in 2001. Including the UK Indie #14 single Gone Away', together with fan favourites like Git Go'and Window'the album soon became a highly sought after addition to Bjelland's hardcore Babes in Toyland fan base. This collection marks the albums 15th Anniversary and it's first ever vinyl release.

    The sophomore album All Kneel'spawned three singles Liberty Belle', Money Shot and Blue Valient. Enjoying great critical acclaim, including features and reviews from Kerrang!, The Guardian and Mojo. Further touring of Europe and the US followed culminating in a headlining slot at Glastonbury Festival in 2004. A final single release Heart-On'via the Australian label RiSH followed in 2007 before Bjelland embarked on her own musical hiatus until the much publicised return of Babes in Toyland.

    Katastrophy Wife 'All Kneel'

    Available on 180g coloured vinyl + DL, 2CD and digital download.


    A decade on from it's critically acclaimed UK release, Katastrophy (Kat-as-trophy) Wife's sophomore album All Kneel finally makes its way to an international release and it's long-awaited vinyl and digital debut. Having cut an iconic swathe thorough alternative rock in the late 80's and 1990's with her band Babes in Toyland, Kat Bjelland reemerged from a brief musical hiatus in 2001 with Katastrophy Wife's debut Amusia, recorded in her home state of Minneapolis, Minnesota, with her then husband, Glen Mattson (Drums) and Keith St. Louis (Bass). Released to  favourable reviews and a UK live debut headlining at the coveted Reading & Leeds Festivals the band soon became a favourite amongst rock critics and fans alike.

    Alternating between her home in Minneapolis and Birmingham, England, Bjelland enlisted the talents of Andrew Parker (Bass), Darren Donovan (Drums) and Vanessa White (Additional Guitars) to co-write and record the bands second offering All Kneel in late 2003. Drawing influence from her new surroundings Bjelland & Co. collaborated with Producer Gavin Monaghan (Editors, Goldblade, The Twang) to create what has been cited as Bjelland's finest output to date, the aptly titled All Kneel.

    Opening with pummelling riffs and frenzied melody the fan favourite Liberty Belle sets the bar for this chainsaw-wielding drag-race of an album that segues through 11 tracks of intelligent and aggressive punk-rock genius. Whipping up a hard and fast racket with standout tracks like Money Shot and Sweetheart before briefly offsetting the dirty for the sweet, with acclaimed singer-songwriter Carina Round on the collaborative Blue Valient, with its aching vocals that cruelly caress before the relentless pounding drums and aural onslaught reprise for the bone-crunching Emit Time and "Layne to Rest", Bjelland's unsettling and touching tribute Alice in Chains singer Layne Stanley.

    Marking it's 10th Anniversary release the album comes complete with the complimentary Bonus Album For Your Patients, a 10 track compilation of previously unreleased, rare and exclusive bonus recordings, including alternative takes on album tracks: Sweetheart and No Thing from Babes in Toyland Producer Tim Mac (Nemesisters) and the electro-remix of Liberty Belle" by indie-icons Bis. Re-packaged, complete with lyrics and original band photography this 10th Anniversary Edition is available on 180g coloured vinyl + DL, 2CD and digital download.
