Long bio
Darwin’s Cat is a Germany-based art-rock / melodic hard-rock duo combining live instruments, strong melodies, and guitar-driven dynamics with science-fiction storytelling. Continuing a European tradition from Voltaire to Swift, they adopt an outsider’s viewpoint to reveal contradictions and blind spots in human culture. In their songs, that “outsider” is a galactic feline civilization — ancient, rational, and distant enough to see humans world with clarity, yet close enough to care about what it finds.
Musically, Darwin’s Cat moves between bluesy textures, classic hard-rock energy, and heavier, more modern passages, always anchored by melodic hooks and expressive guitar solos. The duo builds a coherent narrative universe across releases, where each track works both as a standalone song and as a chapter in a larger sci-fi tale.
Everything is fully self-produced: writing, performance, recording, production, and visuals — including music videos. A good entry points are:
