With such greats as Brainiac, Chat Pile, Flipper, and Oxbow having graced Caterwaul's stages in years past, the fest has come to serve as a beacon for the heavy, experimental fringes of rock. The 2025 lineup promises to cement Caterwaul's reputation as an annual destination for the noisy and iconoclastic, with the initial announcement including the following: psychedelic punkers Elephant Rifle; noise rock beast Eye Flys; neo-grungers In Lieu; doom rock stalwarts Kowloon Walled City; cello rockers Lung; the new wave of Amphetamine Reptile, Mr Phylzzz; angular punk innovators Open Head; hardcore punk kings Pissed Jeans; Suckling, led by Brett Bradford of the legendary Scratch Acid; and post-hardcore transcenders Young Widows.
BrooklynVegan has described Caterwaul as a "unique mix of noise rock, punk, metal, post-punk and beyond." New Noise Magazine has called it "a gathering of some of the best underground bands existing today."
Beyond the curation, Caterwaul has come to represent a cooperative, familial spirit within the underground. Through their decades of work in the trenches of independent music, serving in the roles of musician, label owner, show booker, podcaster, and more, founders Conan Neutron, Rainer Fronz, and Melanie Thomas are deeply tied to the artists and fans whom Caterwaul pulls together. With its fourth installment approaching, Caterwaul is the epicenter of its own scene – not limited to any one specific genre, but dedicated to uniting all people on the loud and eccentric side of the fence.
Asked to deliver a statement about the fest, Neutron, Fronz, and Thomas offer these nine words: “In a world full of Coachellas, be a Caterwaul.”
