Jaya The Cat: The New International Sound Of Hedonism versie op vinyl LP in standaard editie. Deze specifieke uitgave werd uitgebracht in Europa bij uitgeverij Ring of Fire Records op 15. augustus 2013.

JAYA THE CAT - Boston musicians who moved to Amsterdam in 2003, have been a guarantee of a tasteful and captivating combination of ska and reggae rhythms with punk and rock elements since the late 90s. The band has been touring around the world for many years and has gained a loyal fan base all over the world. With the album "The New International Sound Of Hedonism", the quartet around original member, singer and guitarist GEOFF LAGADECA returns and presents their most mature work to date. A multitude of bands have attempted to fuse offbeat and rock, but few have found such an original musical language as JAYA THE CAT, who let offbeat collide with driving guitars and always cleverly arranged and loosely grooving song material under LAGADEC's warm, soul-soaked voice. They can perhaps most closely be compared to SUBLIME, creating pressure while mixing it up like few other bands. In addition to classic offbeat styles, there are elements of dub and dancehall, and even more Caribbean flair creeps in with elements of calypso. Songs like "Here Come The Drums", "Unconditional Love" and "Fake Carreras" impress with their pace and catchy catchy catchphrases, while "Bos En Lommerweg" and "Thank You" match the pop appeal and mature songwriting. And the secret hit "Put A Boombox On My Grave" is vocally perfected by THE KING BLUES boss JONNY "ITCH" FOX. The horns will be played by Dutch jazzmen THE NEW COOL COLLECTIVE. "The New International Sound Of Hedonism" is a musical cornucopia with a compelling summer appeal - danceable, catchy, unforced and debauched. Review ,,(...) Album of the summer!" (Rock Hard) , "The Cat's jams make everyone happy (...) Reflecting on the past, knowing that musical history didn't start with The Clash or Sublime, is what makes this band so strong." (Westzeit) , "The band's diversity quickly becomes apparent when the second track, "Late Night Sonic Insurrection", strolls down a beach boardwalk with a Caribbean twist." (Plastic Bomb) , "Their new album is full of great tunes and is still danceable - just right for summer." (Triggerfish. de)
