Annelie Bertilsson joined the band for their 12" "Fundamental" in 1990 and soon became a regular member of the group.
The group reached a peak with their "Moosehair Underwear" which was mostly mixed and mastered by Jürgen Engler and Chris Lietz at Atom H (Die Krupps HQ).
During the creation of the follow up album "Biodegradable" in 1995 the band went through some turmoil when their singer Joel decided to quit and their new singer Laszlo Hago was supposed to become their new regular singer. This didn't work out very well and thus he was sacked and the band went into hibernation for a few years. "Biodegradable" saw the arrival of guitarist Jonas Awertoft that has become more or less a regular member of the band since then. An EP called "Fuck Nature" was released with more unreleased tracks from the "Biodegradable"-era (thus still including some of the vocal work of Joel).
In 1998 the band returned with a new regular singer John Wreibo and the album "The Secrets Of God". Gone where much of the distorted vocals but the guitars made their appearance well noted still. They soon followed up this album with the album "People As Prey" in 1999.
The band continued touring to support these two last albums.
During the new millennium some demo songs have emerged and some concerts have been played. They are still set to make a new release.
Glory
Cat Rapes Dog Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
I am filled with lust and love
Bring me the lube and my rubber glove
Our love is a bird in the spring
Love is no despicable thing
Cause as little pain as you can
Always be nice to your fellow man
For the greater glory of God, they say
Neither has ever seen the light of day
A pious deed is a roll in the hay
Won't we all be fed up some day?
Our love is beyond all beliefs
It steers clear of all lurking reefs
Don't let a god ruin your heart
"Cogito ergo sum," said Descartes
For the greater glory of God, they say
Neither has ever seen the light of day
A pious deed or a roll in the hay
We will all be fed up some day
I've increased my attention span
I have a good time while I can
Life's too short for being a fool
Be sure not to be the wrong-doers tool
The song "Glory" by Cat Rapes Dog seems to be an exploration of contrasting themes and ideas. The lyrics seem to speak of a passionate sexual encounter, where the singer is eager to satisfy their lover's desires. The lines "I give you what you desire, Girl, we couldn't get much higher" convey a sense of wild abandon and hedonism, as the singer revels in his lust and love. Despite this passionate encounter, the lyrics also seem to hint at a deeper meaning. The line "Our love is beyond all beliefs" suggests that this encounter is more than just physical pleasure- it is a connection that transcends societal norms and expectations. The line "Don't let a god ruin your heart" further suggests that the singer is searching for a pure love that is untainted by religious dogma or societal norms.
The song's chorus is particularly interesting in this regard, as it captures the conflicting themes presented in the lyrics. The lines "For the greater glory of God, they say, Neither has ever seen the light of day" suggest that this passionate encounter is both a pious deed and a transgression. The line "Won't we all be fed up some day?" indicates a sense of disillusionment with the expectations of society and religion. Overall, the song seems to be a meditation on the nature of love and passion, and the conflict between societal norms and personal desire.
