Kittie Release Their Latest Single “One Foot In The Grave”
With four singles out for their upcoming record Fire, Kittie‘s showing yet another side to their sound with the newly released “One Foot In The Grave.” Along with their previous singles “Eyes Wide Open,” “Vultures,” and “We Are Shadows,” I think we’re getting a pretty good idea of what we’re going to get when the band’s first new album in 13 years finally drops on June 21.
Featuring more clean vocals from guitarist/vocalist Morgan Lander, yet still retaining some of the harder aspects of the band’s overall sound, “One Foot In The Grave” feels like a bridge between some of the other songs they’ve already showcased.
Lander said the band was excited to share yet another part of the album, since it’s only a couple of weeks out from release at this point.
“The excitement is palpable in anticipation of our forthcoming album release, with the unleashing of our latest offering ‘One Foot In The Grave’. It’s a feisty, high-energy song about coming back from the dead and rising from the ashes so to speak, paralleling our real life experiences as of late. Letting go of the demons of the past to begin anew is something that resonates with us deeply!”
As they get closer to the album’s release, the band has been forced to reflect on their legacy and where it fits in the discussion of women in metal. During a recent interview, Lander said she’s seeing more and more girls and women showing up to major festivals, and that’s something that everyone should be excited about.
“I can see that others see the power in it. I mean, there’s the girls out in the pit holding the girl pit sign today when we were playing, and we were, like, ‘This is amazing.’
“Yeah, we hope our music empowers everyone, and women especially, and we’re happy — we’re happy for it.”
Fire will be released on June 21 via Sumerian Records, but you can preorder your copy today. You can also catch the band live at a handful of exclusive headlining gigs, listed below.
