生活-ep (“Living EP”) is the debut release from Tokyo-based band cat meows, a deeply personal dive into the quiet emotional turbulence of everyday life. Drawing influence from alternative and UK indie rock, cat meows channels the melancholic currents of daily existence into a sound that balances vulnerability and distortion. Their music weaves introspective lyrics through waves of guitar-driven noise, creating an atmosphere where fragility resonates through every note.
On 生活-ep, each track layers wistful melodies and distorted guitars to capture the subtle emotional shifts that often go unspoken, reflections of guitarist and vocalist Karin Yoshida’s own feelings of solitude, numbness, and quiet frustration. Rather than reaching for grand narratives, 生活-ep embraces the understated: the monotony of routine, the loneliness beneath habit, and the soft threads of emotion that hold a life together.
