City of Caterpillar is an American post-hardcore band from Richmond, Virginia, formed in 2000. They released a split with Pg. 99, one studio album, and a full-length compilation of demos and live tracks. Their songs, some of which are over 8 minutes long, are often characterized by melodic post-rock passages building up into chaotic outbursts.[2]
The band broke up in late 2003, but announced a string of reunion shows across the east coast of the United States in 2016.[3] News of the bands reunion came after Repeater Records reissued their self-titled album.[4][5] The band also announced a European tour for the summer of 2017 and a Japanese tour in the summer of 2018.[6][7]
