The date has been set for Kittie‘s full-length return, “Fire“. The gold-certified alternative metal band will be issuing that new opus on June 21st through Sumerian Records. Just in from that album — the group’s first since 2011 — is the below video for the latest single, “Vultures“. Footage for it was filmed amid the outfit’s live performance at last month’s ‘Sick New World‘ festival in Las Vegas, NV.
Vocalist/guitarist Morgan Lander had the following to say of this outing:
“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, signaling 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.”
