If you look up “workaholic” in the dictionary, you’ll surely find a picture of Peter Tägtgren. Without a doubt he’s one of the busiest man in the metal scene. Despite his status as a top producer and the success of his Electro-metal project, PAIN, he still fronts the band that got him where he is today: HYPOCRISY. In 2002, HYPOCRISY released their most discussed album, "Catch 22". Some Fans were disappointed by the new, more modern style and some slight experiments, others think that "Catch 22" is one of the best albums the band ever made. One of these persons is HYPOCRISY mastermind Peter Tägtgren. But in his opinion there were some little imperfections on the record that he had to erase on day... That´s why Peter decided to fill the gap between the last more than stunning HYPOCRISY asskicker "Virus" (welcoming IMMORTAL/PAIN drummer Horgh for the departed Lars Szöke in the ranks) and the next one with a new version of "Catch 22", simply called "Catch 22 V2.0.08". For this occasion, five years after the release of the original album, Peter re-recorded all guitar parts, his complete vocals and remixed and remastered the rest of the record. Now "Catch 22 V2.0.08" sounds like Peter always had it in mind. As a bonus, the Japan-only track "Nowhere To Run" is also included on this definite version.
If you didn`t fall in love with the unusual and melodic "Catch 22" in the first place, check out this new version, as it will simply blow you away. "Catch 22 V2.0.08" definitely has the potential to be the best HYPOCRISY album – but this time without discussions.
