The new album was further delayed as Warner Bros ordered the removal of the six-minute-long anti-Warner track “That’s All Folks”. Meanwhile, work continued on “I Am The Mob” with a video shoot directed by Kevin Allen . The single was released on 6 October and entered the top 40 for a single week in the 40th position. Catatonia found their roles reversed shortly afterwards, performing as the support act to Space after the Liverpudlians had a series of top 20 singles. They finished off the year with a tour of their own, originally aimed to support the new album, but this was still being held back by the label. Warners replaced “That’s All Folks” with “My Selfish Gene”, and agreed to release “Mulder and Scully” in January 1998 and International Velvet some two weeks later.
