World/Inferno Friendship Society: All Borders Are Porous To Cats

The World/Inferno Friendship Societys long awaited new album dares one to try and decipher its multi-layered encrypted message while being dragged kicking and screaming through a succession of flashbacks alternate realities and drug and alcohol induced delusions. While this ensemble is known for its utter disregard for boundaries of genre All Borders Are Porous To Cats deliberately pushes the limits of what could possibly be perceived as punk rock. It scores tales of fugitives arson larceny perjury drug addiction and freedom with elements of soul funk latin polka and classical music as well as the bands signature punk cabaret sound. Three years in the making five missed release dates five lost band members many a bridge burned and a defamation lawsuit waiting to happen The World /Inferno Friendship Society invites the listener to enjoy the fruits of their perpetual torment. This seventh full-length album finds the collective reset and reinvigorated behind the lyrics of Jack Terricloth apparent possessor of the punk rock fountain of everlasting style and rage. The album follows Cat In The Hat no relation an undocumented refugee who is framed for a crime and requires the assistance of a ragtag gang of miscreants academics orchestra-caliber musicians and radical insurgents-sometimes art does in fact imitate lifeThe albums release comes in tandem with the release of accompanying book One Smashed Window For Every Divided Soul an illustrated combination tour journal and narrative exploration of Cat and his travails. The book acts as a companion piece to the albums story sifting through archival documents and fabulist accounts of the bands East Coast tour of 2017.
