Her output to date consists of the three DIY EPs she’s been drip-dropping out into the world whilst finishing university, with a full length album due in 2013.
Inside of her music swirls simmerings of murderous gloom and honeyed drops of sensual darkness – the nocturnal wrench of ‘Long Day’; the cold-twinkling whirl of 'Carry Your Heart'. The EPs are bound in ribbons: blood-red, purple-black, black. This, though, is the year she goes Technicolor: Catherine has been recording stirring pop hooks, snarls of guitar, glimmers of keyboard and serrated vocal somersaults into her cauldron of midnight piano and treacly growling. She’s even taken to covering a Friendly Fires song. Don’t worry: you didn’t miss Catherine AD before she went soft. You missed her before she became complete.

The Wolves
Catherine A.D. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
We've been dispatched by God, sent to warn these wolves of His wrath
But they wanna put a sock in it, because we're mismatched
Since we have been whipped, dragged through streets, our skin ripped, stabbed
We've been fightin' fire, tryna have these burnin' sticks snatched
Takin' the gospel to the hostile, even if it'll cost all
Not seeing that they're beefin' with what they're breathin' through their nostrils
New Atheists hatin' this, they rage and diss, shakin' fists
At their Maker, ticked, they want everyone to be made to think they were apes and fish
Faiths that misunderstand who He is, with their lives, they wage against Him
Like those who think it's a service they offer their god when they slay Christians
Or wolves in sheep's clothes, or should I say fleece robes?
Who only take and give false teaching, they just pick
Whatever verses make 'em rich, like their Bibles have pages ripped
Cultists who claim they are the same, but they're lost, they stray from Scripts
Those emergin' who gravely twist the clear Word of God to make 'em grin
Those who make the truth out to be whatever they say it is
New Agers with skeptics and agnostics, stuck on maybe/if
All the shady tricks, hol(e)d up ... we won't cave to this!
We lowered our guard, let the enemy creep in with stealth
The moment we got comfy with our feelings and wealth
We are lambs sent to help tame the wild, tell 'em why God gave the Child
He chose this group of troops before we became defiled
So while we wait for our Shepherd to return
We will warn of the fire comin', we don't want you to be burned
We rep the Law fulfiller, we are Lambs Among Wolves
We'd have victory, even if we were ants among Hulk
'Cause when His wrath appears and it engulfs
His enemies, then they'll see the "big bang" that results
We rep the Law fulfiller, we are Lambs Among Wolves
We'd have victory, even if we were ants among Hulk
'Cause when His wrath appears and it engulfs
His enemies, then they'll see the "big bang" that results
I’m lost, I’m found
I’m lost again, I’m found again
I can’t begin to explain my
Frustrations with who I have been
I’m lost, I’m found
I’m lost again, I’m found again
I can’t begin to explain my
Frustrations with who I have been
I've fallen onto my knees, in my prayers, I ask for retreat
From these sins that I just repeat, sins that I just repeat
'Cause I’ve fallen into routines that are twisted, wicked, unclean
Scary visions are haunting me, must beware of the devil's schemes
On my journey, I’ve gone astray, told myself that I’d be okay
Hey, don’t worry, it’s just a phase, soon you’ll be feeling great
But the devil was taking aim, he was ready to dig my grave
I was falling into temptations, my faith, it had been degrading
It’s easy to feel defeated, to stay down and take the beating
But that’s not the reason you’re here, you’re not defeated
It’s Jesus who rose again, it’s through Him that I find my strength
'Cause of Him that I’ll be alright and be better right by His side
Hope is found through the Saviour’s name, grace is given, 'cause Jesus came
Loneliness, yeah, let that decay, accept Christ, He’s here to stay
Hope is found through the Saviour’s name, grace is given, 'cause Jesus came
Loneliness, yeah, let that decay, accept Christ, He’s here to stay
We rep the Law fulfiller, we are Lambs Among Wolves
We'd have victory, even if we were ants among Hulk
'Cause when His wrath appears and it engulfs
His enemies, then they'll see the "big bang" that results
We rep the Law fulfiller, we are Lambs Among Wolves
We'd have victory, even if we were ants among Hulk
'Cause when His wrath appears and it engulfs
His enemies, then they'll see the "big bang" that results
We stay wise like serpents, but harmless as doves
Lambs among the wolves, our struggle is a must
Bringing you the message Christ the Saviour had discussed
Before He bled and died a shameful way up on the cross
So that filthy men can rid themselves of all the dust
Leave behind the snares, sinfulness, and the lust, uhh
This is the time that we’re living in, there is no giving in
We tread a path that's narrow and it’s very thin
Cross that line, it’ll never be the same again
Seek this refuge and take heed, whoever’s listening
In case you be defiled by wolves that seek your very skin
Leading many astray, they pry and kill the innocent
There is no taming them, the blood stains them within
Leading lambs to the slaughter with lies and their cunning grins
Just like in the beginning, the devil brought his poison in
God had named it sin and it remained ever since
Evil lives by every inch, the world rotting in it's stench
God Himself came down and bruised the wicked wolf prince
Oh, men, won’t you repent? Rather, you’d interject
Prosperity and intellect to God's Word with no respect
Death, where is your sting? Wolves are no match for Him
He brings day where night is dim, fire and the whirling winds
His voice is thundering, you won’t get this chance again
Told you from the start, my friend, hail Christ the Lion King
We rep the Law fulfiller, we are Lambs Among Wolves
We'd have victory, even if we were ants among Hulk
'Cause when His wrath appears and it engulfs
His enemies, then they'll see the "big bang" that results
We rep the Law fulfiller, we are Lambs Among Wolves
We'd have victory, even if we were ants among Hulk

The lyrics to Catherine A.D.'s song "The Wolves" speak to the struggle and mission of believers in a hostile world. The song portrays the believers as lambs sent by God to deliver a warning of His wrath to the wolves, who symbolize those who oppose and distort the truth.
The first verse describes the persecution and opposition faced by the believers as they try to spread the gospel. They are met with resistance and mockery from various groups, including New Atheists, cultists, and those who twist the clear Word of God. The lyrics emphasize the believers' determination to stay true to their mission and not be swayed by the deception and attacks of the wolves.
The chorus highlights the believers' unwavering faith and confidence in the victory that comes from being on God's side. They recognize their smallness in comparison to the enemies they face, but they trust in the power of God's wrath to ultimately defeat them. The repeated mention of the "big bang" alludes to the cosmic consequences that will result when God's wrath is unleashed.
The second part of the song delves into the personal struggles of the singer. They express frustration with their own shortcomings and sins, experiencing a sense of being lost and found repeatedly. The lyrics reflect a desire for redemption and a recognition of the destructive patterns and temptations they have fallen into. However, they find hope and strength in Jesus, who is the source of their salvation and the reason to keep fighting.
Overall, "The Wolves" conveys a message of perseverance, faith, and the ongoing battle between good and evil in the world.

Though it was more niche and less popular than some of Atlus’ other titles, I still thoroughly enjoyed Catherine when it released a decade ago. One of these days I’d like to get to playing its expanded re-release from 2019, which features a lot of new content, most notably a new third love interest character. That said, despite its anime and dating sim elements being most heavily shown in marketing, I remember this title first and foremost as a puzzle game, and an exceedingly stressful one at that. Thankfully, the excellent soundtrack offset a lot of the stress, and I’m pleased to hear several great new tracks. It’s a bit surprising to see that Shōji Meguro did not return for them, since it really does sound just like his style!
Incidentally, the official title of this track appears to be “The wolf’s we're born to be!”, but I just couldn’t abide by such bad grammar!
@MrsLittletall
I am surprised, the song sounds very different from the other songs of the game, which are all classic remixes. The jazzy/rocky tune is a nice addition though.
@KatJustice97
In case you haven't played yet (this isn't really a spoiler though) there's a story based context for why this song is such a departure from the rest of the game's soundtrack. And for anyone who hasn't played yet, I highly recommend Catherine Full-Bodied. Rin is adorable (and her endings are hilariously ludicrous) and there's (additional) alternative "true" endings for the C/Katherine routes.
