Class is in session. The teacher has a cat mask and a grievance.

Prepare to Be Educated is the title of Cat Face Killer’s 1985 debut 7-inch — the record that followed their incendiary 1984 Hong Kong Café debut and confirmed to the underground that whatever CFK was doing was not going to be explained, categorized, or approved by anyone with institutional authority.

The education CFK offers is not the kind with a curriculum. It is the kind that happens when you hear something that rewires how you think about what music is supposed to do, what a band is supposed to be, and what the relationship between an artist and the establishment is supposed to look like.

The answer, according to Cat Face Killer, is: adversarial. Always.

Wear this shirt to every room that has ever tried to teach you something that was more about compliance than understanding. Consider it a second opinion.

Prepare to be educated. Class dismissed.

All purchases support the ongoing documentation of the Cat Face Killer conspiracy and the full creative universe of Jeffery Page & Friends.
