Hands Down [Remastered Edition]

Kilkenny Cats are from Athens, Georgia. The band's 1986 debut album is now on CD for the first time - remastered and expanded with 4 bonus tracks. Critics called them "moody Southern goth," "hard-driving college rock," and "pop-ish hypnotic indie dance rock" with "haunting melodies and blazing guitar."

In 1985, R.E.M.'s Mike Mills cited them as "the #1 band in Athens" in an article in Spin magazine. The album includes the lead-off track "Nightfall" which was featured in the 1987 seminal rock documentary "Athens, Ga Inside/ Out".
