Cattera, the Heavy Metal Band with a Feline Singer

What goes together better than heavy metal and cats? "Anything," you might think. But that's what makes Cattera so special. This band has a cat for a lead singer. Actually, their only singer. Record company executive Anna Mrzyglocki took in a street cat she named Roope-Shakir, and was impressed by his strong meows. The next thing you know, Roope-Shakir is heading a four-piece band with a single called "Hunger of the Beast." Cattera is obviously inspired by Pantera (for the name) and Iron Maiden (for the song title). No cats were harmed in the making of this song. Let's see Roope-Shakir at work.

It's doubtful that you'll ever see Cattera perform live. The song is a fundraiser for Whiskers-A-Gogo, a New York City cat rescue organization. Read more about Cattera at Louder. -via Farkā€‹
