Canadian Metal Vixens Kittie Hit the Road for Summer Tour

By: Staff

The veteran ladies of metal, Kittie, are taking a trip this summer. Making stops all over the U.S., including the infamous “Gathering Of Juggalos” festival. Kittie will be headlining shows for a month and a half beginning August 11th in with ICP at the GOJ fest. Dirge Within and Diamond Plate have been tapped to support.

Kittie have been hard at work since April recording their still unnamed new album. Singer/screamer Morgan Lander has said that it will be even harder than their last record, In the Black, which was harder than the one before that.

“We have been working exceptionally hard, crafting what is to be our 6th full length release, and our second for eOne. In some cases these new songs are faster, darker and much more sinister than our previous release. It contains some of the most difficult and personal subject matter I have had the pleasure (or displeasure) of writing.”

The band is again teaming up with producer Siegfried “Siggy” Meier for the follow-up to In the Black, and have been putting in long hours at Beach Road Studios in Goderich, Ontario. “The girls have written some incredible and personal songs this time around,” says Siggy. “They’re heavy as shit and relentless. It’s a pleasure and an honor to be doing another record with one of the best metal bands of our time.” While there is no definite release date, the new record will be out sometime this year.
