Kittie’s Still Got It Thirty Years Later with a Sold Out Show in LA!

Canadian metal alternative rockers Kittie who has been together for the past thirty years, forming back in 1996, with sisters Morgan and Mercedes remaining the sole consistent members til this very day and time. Have recently announced a run of a tour, in which they have not toured since 2012, where they would go on a hiatus of quite sometime. But once they made a come back, comeback they did, not only with a tour, but with an accompanying new album "Fire" released in 2024, the band would be glad to be back!

With that said, I myself personally have never seen this band live like ever. Only given the chance to meet the band during in a meet and greet event at the music store FYE way back in 2007! Whole different look and sound slightly for the band back then when releasing 2007's "Funeral for Yesterday". But now would be the time to shine and get to see them live in person in Los Angeles at the Echoplex in sunny California.

The fans would already be piled in come door time, as I had made it by the end of the evening, catching headliner's themselves Kittie hit the stage roughly around 9:45PMish performing til about a little after 11PMish, non-stop with no breaks til the very end!

Twenty songs for their extensive set list, rotating through a good chunk of their seven-album release. A lot of the favorites including "Spit", "Brackish", being top contenders with others including such as "We Are the Lamb", "Eyes Wide Open", "Cut Throat", "Oracle", "We Are Shadows" and "What I Always Wanted" to just name off a few.

LIVE PHOTOS:

The crowd packed this venue out, I'd say at least the very front to the mid-back, not to the very back to the back bar area, but middle section, where the side couches stood, to the front mostly. The front space had a pit break up, with crowd surfers piling in at certain points, with the pit causing all there to be pushed forward against the stage with no barricade. 

The band as a whole was entertaining and the show was fun. Having never seen this one live before, it was nice to get the chance to do so. Kittie has been around for some time and they still act like they came out of the 90's era, bringing that nu-metal alternative era to the modern times to create something memorable.
