Electrorock meets emotion: CattaC's ‘Don't Fear Tomorrow’ in focus
Sometimes all it takes is one song to catapult you into another world – and ‘Don't Fear Tomorrow’ by CattaC is just such a track. From the first second, a typical electro rock sound unfolds that immediately reveals that it is none other than CattaC at work here. But what really thrilled me are the wicked and unusual synthesiser sounds that break through the dark soundscape and give the song a fascinating depth.
The distinctive, dark vocals – a trademark of CattaC – contribute significantly to the mood. Especially the refrain with lines like "I'm here to stay, to hear you say: Don't fear tomorrow!" gripped me emotionally. It is this mixture of despair and hope that makes the song so haunting. The lyrics tell of inner struggles, loss and the search for a way out of the darkness – topics that many of us can relate to.
Musically, CattaC stays true to their style, combining darkwave, EBM and industrial elements with a gloomy atmosphere. The song is like a soundtrack for those moments when you feel lost but are still looking for a spark of light.

Lyrics of "Cattac – Don't Fear Tomorrow"
Your mirror shows a hollow face
a ghost of yourself, a fading trace…
I'm here to stay
To hear you say: Don't fear tomorrow!
Yeah, I'm still alive – but i cannot move
Every shadow has its end
Beyond the realm of sanity
you lost your faith and your family
Death calls but you turn away
there's a chance to find your way…
I'm here to stay
To hear you say: Don't fear tomorrow!
Yeah, I'm still alive – but i cannot move
Every shadow has its end
Inner storms tear us apart
Quiet cries…
from wounded hearts
I'm here to stay
To hear you say: Don't fear tomorrow!
Yeah, I'm still alive – but i cannot move
My shadow…
has its end
