09 March 2008 I know we've been quite lazy updating the website, but...anyway:)sorry about that. Happy new year, happy fuckin' Valentines day, happy 3rd March to all bulgarian readers, and happy birthday to Bobi (6th December) Shemet (11th December) and myself (Lubo - 9th February). In a few short lines what happened during the past few months. We had 9 shows (6 in Sofia, 1 in Plovdiv and 2 in Greece with Suave Gap). We had a lot of fun especially in Greece as this was our first tour abroad. It was a big adventure, my car broke and had to pay so much money, we got really drunk there for free and we made a lot of new friends, especially in LArissa:)))A week ago we played our "best show" according to Bobi on the "Sofia Goes Punk" mini fest. We would like to thank to all the people who were there and made the fun unforgettable!!!We would like to say a big thank you to all our friends who didn't miss any of the shows in our hometown and we would like to say thank you to LA crew for the warm welcoming. I uploaded the lyrics of  "Just A Love Song" and "Heroes" .  Very soon we will upload some new photos and posters from our latest shows. Until then you can check some videos from the shows with Suave Gap on www.youtube.com/catalystpunkrock . Right now we are listening to the new Millencolin album and  watching porn on Private Spice, ok I am watching porn, i guess the others are already dreaming, porn again ofcourse. No seriously we are working on a new song "One more day" which we expect to be the next "hit-single" and trying to book some summer shows.

One more time i will wait for tomorrow, One more day i will waste in sorrow!

08 November 2007 Long time no line! But here we are again with lots of stuff. We've been quite quiet lately but that's just because we are working on some new pretty cool songs. You can check out the lyrics of "This Is How A Long Time Love Affairs Dies" and "Convenient Reality" (our pride) in the lyrics section. We also have tons of new photos from our summer "tour". Yeah it was a crazy summer with lots of fun!We would like to thank all of you who made this summer shows such a wonderful experience. 

 ~it was a promise of summer, let's seal it with a kiss~

April 2007 Hi, guys !

Catalyst!

Like every band Catalyst has a story too, but not the typical one, cause we're not just another punk rock band out there. As NOFX sing in one of their songs "there's a million assholes with ten million guitars"
Well maybe we really have guitars but we are not assholes. hmm maybe we are. We are influenced by bands such as NOFX, Millencolin, Blink 182, Good Riddance, Strung Out, Rise Against and many more. We believe that every band should try to hand down a message to the people via its music. So Catalyst is not just punk rock, it's a complex mix of lyrics and music in which we try to affect people's point of view, to make them feel things in a completely new way. We try to be a 'catalyst' to people's emotions, feelings and thoughts. Cause our band is based not just on a people who play music together just for fame and girls. First of all we are a bunch of friends from highschool and after that naturally comes the band and the fun ofcourse. We stand for each other, for the things we believe in and the people we love. And what about you? What do you believe in?
