Kittie‘s 25th anniversary celebration of their gold-selling 1999 debut album “Spit” has resulted in four newly re-recorded songs . Titled “Spit XXV“, that collection finds the Canadian alternative metal band having laid down updated takes on “Spit“, “Do You Think I’m A Whore?“, “Brackish” and “Charlotte“.
The sessions for these newly revamped songs took place with original “Spit” producer GGGarth Richardson (Rage Against The Machine, Mudvayne). “Spit XXV” will arrive this Friday, September 19th, through Sumerian Records. Just hours ahead of that release comes the debut of a Wombat Fire-directed music video for the updated version of “Do You Think I’m A Whore?“
Kittie vocalist/guitarist Morgan Lander had the following to say about giving this deep cut a new take:
“We’re beyond excited to revisit and reimagine songs that that started it all for us with Spit XXV. Re-recording these songs has been an emotional and empowering journey. It’s a chance to honour our roots while bringing a new level of energy and experience to the music. Spit XXV isn’t just a celebration of where we came from, but a thank-you to the fans who have stood by us for the past 25 years.
‘Do You Think I’m A Whore?‘ has always been the dark horse of our debut album and it is was such a pleasure to give it the updated treatment and celebrate how awesome of a song it really is. Pair that with the unbelievable music video visuals from William Felch at Wombat Fire and it’s clear the track is finally getting its flowers.”
