The first phase of C/A/T (pronounced “cat”) ran from 1998 through early 2008 and encompassed 3 full albums, 2 EPs, multiple limited edition releases and countless compilation appearances.
Phase One of C/A/T began with a series of low-run CDR releases on the Crunch Pod label from 2001 through 2004. This early period of C/A/T featured a raw and experimental approach to electronic music and live performances were carried out solely by Crunch Pod and C/A/T founder Ben Arp.
The first notable release for C/A/T during Phase One was the EP “Worldwide Totalitarian Control” which kept the more free from experimental style of previous recorded material by C/A/T and was thematically a political and conspiracy theory based work. The WTC EP was followed in mid-2005 by the first full length C/A/T album called “The Prisoner”. “The Prisoner”, borrowing heavily from the television show of the same name, took the political ideas presented on the WTC EP and took them one step further. Aurally, the sound began to evolve more towards beat-heavy electronic music and gained more structure.
The next major shift in Phase One was the addition of a new live member, Kat, in Summer of 2005. Kat would remain in the band as a live member until the end of Phase One on February 10th, 2008. The addition of Kat also brought about the next C/A/T album “The Rogue Pair” in late 2005.

@VR515 I don't think a song named "Ben" would be too exciting... plus Michael Jackson beat me to it years ago. :)

@VR515 yeah, I wish I would have thought of that back when I named the band. But in 1999 it wasn't a big deal - CDs didn't care what characters the band name used ;)

So… what is going on.
2 Jan 2010 | from www.crunchpod.com/cat/blog
Sorry about being a few days behind on this.
C/A/T is not “ending” in the traditional “I’m stopping the band!” sense.
C/A/T is becoming Chaos And Terror.
