In 2005 as part of the new album “Mind Cannibals” promotional tour, KAT joined Six Feet Under for their European tour, and following that they also joined another tour with Helloween. Piotr Luczyk has always kept a close eye on the musical quality of the band’s albums and concerts, which lead to further shows with Motorhead and Iron Maiden. In 1998 KAT was honoured with the only tribute album ever recorded for a Polish band - “Czarne Zastepy”, which featured such heavy-weights like Vader and Behemoth and their renditions of KAT’s tracks. This show was documented on KAT's live album. In 1987 KAT performed twice as a support band for Metallica (Master Of Puppets tour). The planned European Tour did not come to fruition due to political turmoil behind the Iron Curtain, the band members were denied passports to travel so instead, KAT stayed home and supported a number of bands including Hanoi Rocks, Pretty Maids, Running Wild, Helloween, and Overkill. Two years later, on the eve of the introduction of the martial law in communist Poland a vocalist joined the band.įollowing several successful gigs, festivals, and a win at the most renowned Eastern Europe Rock Festival in Jarocin in 1984, KAT was noticed by western experts and recorded their first album “Metal and Hell” under the Belgian label “Ambush Records”. The metal legend and trash trailblazer from behind the Iron Curtain was established as an instrumental group by Piotr Luczyk, the band’s guitarist in 1979.
