Reviews
Although modesty and natural British reserve prevents me from blowing my own horn, here are a few comments from the critics (see the individual Reviews section for each album for more). As you read them, just to avoid confusion, bear in mind I released 3 solo albums but slapped a band name (CatDesigners) on them.
"This band does not only strive to maintain an original and innovative style of their own, but they strive for excellence and they will not finish evolving until their dying day. CatDesigners is not just another run of the mill British pop band, they put a futuristic spin on 1960's classic rock, creating a sound just their own" (Nicole Volpicelli, Circle Magazine)
"The United Kingdom's Googlie Mooglie Records impressionistic indie band CatDesigners recalls Bowie with ease. Often dizzily dangling guitar chords with groovy bass and vocals that could blush the best of the business" (J-Sin, Smother.net)
"Keep an eye on this band; they will most likely start edging their way into a bigger spotlight soon" (Joe Wallace, Mondo Gordo)
"Nick Troop is the man behind CatDesigners and I would encourage you to support his peculiar ways, wholeheartedly" (Scott Hamilton, Zeitgeist)
"If you've ever struggled with a creative project, you'll probably join me in wanting to kill Nick Troop and everyone else like him. It's nothing personal; Troop is simply one of those overly-inspired folks who can crank out an entire polished, professional-sounding album on his own, seemingly with no more effort than if he was doing a load of laundry on a Sunday afternoon" (George Zahora, Splendid E-Zine)
