Kittie have finally unveiled details for their long-awaited new album, Fire, slated for release on June 21st via Sumerian Records. To celebrate the reveal, the group has dropped a video for their latest single, “Vultures.” The clip features live footage from their recent performance at the Sick New World festival. Pre-orders for Fire are now available, offering a range of exclusive bundles, including vinyl colorways, t-shirts, cassette tapes, stickers, guitar picks, and even metal lunch boxes.
Fire marks the first album from these metal giants since 2011’s I’ve Failed You, and coincidentally (?), the same year as the 25th anniversary of their debut album, 1999’s Spit. Kittie has already shared two singles for the upcoming record, “We Are Shadows” and “Eyes Wide Open,” along with announcing summer tour dates that will pair well with their non-alcoholic beer, KittiePig. These metal icons are back, full speed ahead.
Vocalist/guitarist Morgan Lander comments:
“10 years ago, if someone would have told us that we would be releasing new Kittie music in 2024, we’d have dismissed them right away. It feels like something deeper than fate that’s brought us together again, allowing us to create something fearless and magical for you. We’ve worked incredibly hard over the past year, and surrounded ourselves with the ultimate dream team to make this album a reality. We cannot wait for you to lose yourselves in the passion and strength of ‘Fire.’
Vultures is a bold musical declaration, signalling our new beginnings as a band. Vultures is a warning to those with hidden agendas, who thrive on deception. It’s a proclamation of breaking free of the chains of exploitation and a reckoning for those who pick at the bones of those who suffer in silence.”
