Catherine Wheel Artist Snapshot:

One of the first bands to openly and fully embrace the first wave of British shoegazer acts such as My Bloody Valentine and House of Love, Catherine Wheel expertly mixed those bands' atmospheric guitar swirls with a bombastic, alternative rock crunch. During its decade-long run, Catherine Wheel experienced a respectable amount of success in both the U.K. and the United States, scoring their biggest hit stateside with the grungy album HAPPY DAYS. Though not as critically acclaimed as other contemporaneous British guitar bands, Catherine Wheel have proven to be a quietly respected act within '90s British alt-rock.

Review

Entertainment Weekly (8/6/93, p.58) - "...anyone who thinks British 'dream-pop' bands can't write decent tunes should get a load of these guys..." Rating: B+
Q (9/93, p.80) - 3 Stars - Good - "...[Catherine Wheel] have taken two years and the first half of [CHROME] to leave 1991 behind..."
Melody Maker (7/24/93, p.34) - "...CHROME is a tighter, more robust affair than FERMENT...the nods Catherine Wheel have made to marketability have left them sounding more assured....this is perhaps the ultimate Catherine Wheel album..."
NME (Magazine) (7/17/93, p.31) - 7 - Very Good - "...A triumph..."
