Screamo band Catalyst... performs live at the Bad Astronaut Brewing Co. in Houston.
Catalyst... plays Bad Astronaut Brewing Co. on Thursday, October 8, 2026. They're a screamo band coming in from Providence, Rhode Island, so this is a long-haul trip down to Houston for a single night. If you're not familiar with the scene they come from, screamo is that particular brand of emotional hardcore that keeps the raw, shouted vocals of punk but lets the songs breathe with more dynamic shifts and melodic passages in between. It's music that doesn't shy away from the loud, jagged edges, and it's exactly what they'll be bringing to the stage.
Coming from Providence, they're playing far from home, which is always a good reason to get out and see a band when they're passing through. The set is a screamo show through and through, so you know what to expect: the intensity of the vocals and the energy of a live band that plays with a lot of heart. It's the kind of night that works best when you're there in person rather than listening from a distance.
