Catfish have announced more dates for February 2019, as well as their big Wembley show being moved to Feb. This hopefully mean the new album should be out in the first part of next year!
I can't wait for new Catfish, it feels like it's been forever since The Ride (even though it's been 2 years).
I think this era will be their most succesful, it's insane how big Catfish have become since they released their first album.
YESS! I agree with you on them being big, I think "7" and "Twice" have been as big as your average top 10 UK hit.
Yeah, one thing that really surprised me is how many non-music fans I've spoken to at school knew who Catfish where!
Teasing January 8th on their Instagram story!
They're also linking their mailing list with the date tease - https://t.co/Jc8h4olbuZ
Ahhhh there was me hoping it'd be tomorrow </3 So hyped tho
They always do well on streaming and things have only grown since their last album, so fingers crossed for a big chart hit (i.e., their first T40, although 7 of their 12 singles to date have all gone at least Silver!)
Be perfect time to release as this week is too early in the year imo - if it's a hit it will climb into the top 40 anyway!

New single tomorrow!
Apparently it's called 'Longshot' according to Music Week.
Can't wait - Hottest Record no doubt
This is amazing! Love how they've changed up their sound a bit
Love it already! Such s great comeback for them!
Longshot is already their highest charting single at #79 after just 2 days, expect a Top 40 climb next week!
"Longshot" is BRILLIANT, my favourite track of 2019 so far.
Great comeback - a long runnng top 40 hit would bring something fresh to the chart!!
Longshot is superb
The album is called "The Balance" and it is coming April 26th!

Looking forward to it! They've played Fluctuate live a few times and it sounds really good so I'm happy to see we'll finally get a studio version.
Def on my to buy/listen to list for this year!
Just pre-ordered the vinyl, hoping to see them in Coventry! "Longshot" remains amazing

It seems the next single will be '2all' as they've been filming the video for it!
Sounding amazing!
Any sign of the premiere? Longshot still has plenty of time to grow yet, don't really need a new single until March time!

New single next Wednesday at Zane Lowe's World Record - so it should be 5pm GMT!
Fluctuate out now!
Damn it's so good!
This album can't come quick enough for me ❤️
iTunes is saying the next single '2all' will be released on Tuesday!
They were seen filming the video for this late last year.
Is it the official second single or another grat?
I imagine it's the second single, seeing as they've filmed a video for it.
Yeh and with the album out in 6 weeks it would make sense playlist wise!
Confirmation of tomorrow's release!
Another banger! Really emotive lyrics, love the video as well
Will it be 4 good or better tracks on the trot?
Surprised they opted for "2all" over "Fluctuate" as 2nd single though.
Another banger! Very Oasis.
Buzzing for this tonight!
Same here although the buzz has calmed slightly as 2all hasn't really hit me yet!
I've been blasting out Conversation! Definitely my second fave of the songs released so far after Longshot.
It's on my phone!!
Absolutely love the album! Not a single dud song on it!
Definitely more grit in Van's vocals, and some amazing guitar solo's on it as well. I think my fave song has to be Encore.
Can't wait to take it in more and listen again
Conversation video releasing tomorrow! Fantastic headline set from them at TRNSMT on Saturday, available on the iPlayer.
And here it is!
Wonder if this is the end of the album cycle now? They'll still be touring and doing festivals for the next year - but I'd like to see Encore or Sidetrack as the next single if there is one.
There definitely wasn't a Nintendo video there, we saw nothing
Headlining Reading & Leeds 2021! That's massive for them, and Van was on Radio 1 and confirmed there will be new music before that performance
The Sun are reporting that Catfish and the Bottlemen have split up... but they're supposed to be headlining Reading & Leeds this weekend? (and they confirmed new music would be soon not too long ago).
Very strange! Hopefully the rumours aren't true, I'd be very disappointed if so I'll suppose we'll find out this weekend.
Supposedly going to be still doing any planned gigs and announce the split at them. Hoping it’s not true though but usually these rumours do have some truth to them.
It just seems strange as the reason being that they haven't cracked America? I believe Arctic Monkeys are the only British indie rock band of the last 20+ years who have, so it just seems very strange.
Especially as now they're playing the biggest festival slots of their career over here!
I imagine there’s probably been a fall out and instead of saying that they are using the fact they haven’t cracked America as an excuse. I could be wrong though but if it was an amicable split then I would of thought they would have done one last album.
If they'd fallen out though, I would have expected them to cancel their upcoming shows.
I suppose we'll find out on Friday though!
It would explain the complete radio silence online in almost a year though
Their headline set will be streamed at 20:35 on the iPlayer tonight! I'm very intrigued as to what will happen, as they surely can't just ignore it.
Well nothing was announced at the set... they literally didn't say a word between the songs! They had an absolutely enormous crowd though, so that was good to see.
Drummer Bob Hall has announced that he's left the band on Instagram, and that the rest of the band are set to continue (they just announced a show supporting Stereophonics at Cardiff Stadium) - so god knows why they didn't say anything at their gigs this summer!
Guitarist Bondy was on Instagram live this morning complaining about Catfish, saying that he wasn’t allowed to release the music he wanted to, and he’s “trying to make music fun again” for him with his new stuff.
Guess they definitely are done then! Unless Van wants to keep the name I suppose.
Johnny Bond has finally addressed what happened with the group. He left in March 2021 and only returned for their summer shows as a session musician, he has no idea what’s going on with the band now. They just cancelled their support shows for Stereophonics at Cardiff Stadium.
