In the early phases of their career, the band was frequently dismissed as being “little more than a second-rate Smashing Pumpkins knockoff”. The fact that drummer Kerry Brown was married to Smashing Pumpkins bassist D’Arcy did little to weaken this allegation, along with the notable point that the two bands would occasionally borrow members from one another in the recording studio and rehearsal space which they shared. Although their earlier releases bore a slight resemblance to The Smashing Pumpkins, Catherine eventually discovered their own sound over time.
The original band lineup slowly came together during the late ’80s and early ’90s, with founding members Neil Jendon and Jerome Brown providing the band with their name (for reasons unknown; even to them). Along with a drum machine, they were joined by bassist Cliff Fox for their first release, the Sparkle/Charmed 7” single, which was put out on the local Limited Potential label.
With the addition of drummer Kerry Brown (no relation to Jerome) soon afterward, the drum machine was shelved. New guitarist Mark Rew also came aboard, and the group released the Billy Corgan-produced “Sleepy” EP in 1993. The EP was embraced in college markets, which prompted the group to sign with TVT for their debut album, “Sorry!”, later in the same year.
