Reunited alt/nu metal vets Kittie have released their first new song in 13 years, “Eyes Wide Open,” via the band’s new label home Sumerian Records. It was produced by Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Code Orange, etc), and it finds the band honoring their past but sounding very current.
“Our first new material in 13 years, ‘Eyes Wide Open’ is a vision quest for truth,” says vocalist/guitarist Morgan Lander. “It is a torch lit in the darkness of ignorance to reveal one’s true motives. ‘Eyes Wide Open’ is a lesson in trust, betrayal and ultimately the ability to see behind the curtain to reveal all. It was one of the first songs we wrote, coming together again after a long time away from creating, and I think you can really hear the fires reigniting in this track.”
Listen and watch the video below. A press release says “stay tuned for more on Kittie’s global metal domination coming soon.”
Kittie have upcoming festival appearances at Sick New World, Welcome to Rockville, and Sonic Temple.
