admin — Fri, 11 May 2012 11:59:25 +0000

Photographer John Schulze has sent in some fantastic pictures from Kittie’s show in The Rave, Milwaukee on 17th April 2012.

See more in our gallery.

There is also an interview we linked a few days ago, where John chats to Morgan about zombies, piracy, touring and possible Spit reunion. You can read that here.

We found an older video of Groovey at the Warped Tour 2010 where Kittie were killed by Maris the Great.
Morgan and Mercedes are featured from 4:00 onward.

Happy Birthday Trish!

Happy 27th Birthday to Trish! We hope you have a great birthday on the road!

Soundtrack of the Week interviewed Morgan about beginning the band, her take on music and ‘I’ve Failed You.’

A new video of Kittie’s show in Odessa, Texas on the 5th May.
It’s twelve minutes long and should convince you to go get a ticket while they tour the US. See remaining shows below.

On The Record: Women In Metal

admin — Sun, 06 May 2012 02:01:23 +0000

Metal Injection presents the fourth episode of our series which turns the camera onto the people working behind the scenes in the music industry, “On The Record.” This is the fourth of a five-part series focusing on “A Decade Of Metal.” Each week, some of the heavyweights that make the heavy metal industry tick will weigh in on the biggest subjects to occur in the metal scene in the last decade, This edition focuses on the abundance of females in bands in the new millenium, and their ever-growing influence in the metal scene.

We’re a little disappointed to see that the two times they mention Kittie, they assume Kittie wouldn’t exist without certain female metal acts & they use clips from the Brackish video instead of anything more recent.
We appreciate they were at least mentioned!

New Interview + Live Video

Josh Rundquist (a.k.a. That Drummer Guy) conducted an interview with vocalist/guitarist Morgan Lander of Canadian metallers KITTIE before the band’s April 18 concert at Station 4 in St Paul, Minnesota.

Live video of We Are the Lamb from Grove of Anaheim on April 27th. Great quality!

Spring Tour Interviews

admin — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 12:10:43 +0000

Mercedes was interviewed by Litsa Olsson at Sound Entertainment News.

John Schulze has published an interview with Morgan Lander, this is the first info we have seen about the ‘Spit Reunion’ from one of the members. Read it here.

If you look at all the comments like ‘I didn’t know that chicks could do this,’ and I think that’s a ridiculous mindset first of all, but I’m happy and proud that “Cut Throat” would be the song that would introduce the band, as opposed to something that we wrote 12 years ago or released 12 years ago, you know what I mean ? It’s the redefined new Kittie and I think it’s a good song that covers all the bases.

Happy Birthday To Tara!

admin — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 22:27:06 +0000

It’s Tara’s birthday! She turns 28 today!

New Merchandise

admin — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 22:48:46 +0000

JSR DIRECT added new Kittie shirts to their site. Seems that those shirts were sold during their last tour, so if you haven’t bought any then, here’s your chance to buy them now!

The first shirt with no image is this owl shirt also sold during the last tour.
According to the message board, Mercedes stated that the owl shirt is the first shirt they ever printed in white. It’s fantastic in white!

Buy them HERE.

This current tour, they seem to have same shirts plus a new one that we spot in this photo with their new merch guy Richie. That “I Heart Kittie” wife-beater looks pretty awesome!

Old Interviews & New videos

admin — Wed, 18 Apr 2012 18:23:14 +0000

Here is an older interview from 2010 at the Rave during the Happy Daze Tour.

And another from Bunch.tv with Mercedes & Tara here.

An entire show was posted on youtube recently, Kittie sound amazing! We are glad that Trish’s clackity-clack is back. Check out the videos below!

We have done a little tidying up around the site, fixing some pages here and there that needed to be tweaked. We are also in the process of removing some content from the site. It is something we have thought about for a while now, this is a Kittie fansite and we hate to overstep the mark between public and personal.
