Cootie Catcher

Cootie Catcher

Toronto-based quartet Cootie Catcher hypercharges the tenderness of twee pop with high-energy electronics and an unabashedly direct lyrical presence. On melodic, uptempo, and overpoweringly joyous songs, the band investigates raw feelings and vulnerable situations, pulling no emotional punches but basking in major key jangle and ecstatic synth tones the entire time. Their newest album and Carpark debut, Something We All Got, is the most high definition of their sound yet, graduating from the basement-born recordings that came before it without losing the saturated excitement of those lo-fi roots.Now several years into finding their sound, Cootie Catcher shares their sophomore album Something We All Got, a fast-changing network of glitchy electronic bubble pops, collisions of loops and live drums, and bracingly straightforward emotional expressions. These songs are complex but always fun, alive with dichotomous energy and inspired by lived experiences with navigating tricky relationships, social topographies, and challenges in the microcosm of being a band as well as the zoomed-out perspectives of a larger shared reality.
