Kittie Embrace the Darkness with Music Video for “We Are Shadows”

Glass-ceiling-shattering original Queens of Metal, Kittie is thrilled to announce the release of “We Are Shadows,” a powerful follow-up to their explosive comeback single “Eyes Wide Open,” released in February via new label home, Sumerian Records. The new track continues the band’s triumphant return, offering a further look into their musical evolution after a 13-year hiatus.

“We Are Shadows” speaks to the fading certainty in a world shrouded by looming challenges and increasing division. Both a reflection and a reckoning, a compelling narrative crafted with the band’s signature intensity and a profound lyrical depth.

Kittie frontwoman and guitarist Morgan Lander shares:

“‘We Are Shadows’ is about the uncertainty of a future that we can no longer control. We have come to a critical place in life and in our world, and much like an eclipse over taking the sun, we are losing the light. The image of shadows slowly fading in the evening darkness, and the analogy of ‘us’ as shadows in the night really illustrates the possibility of slowly fading into oblivion. It is not a song of hope however, it’s a song of coming to terms with the damage we do and acceptance of our fate. We’ve let darkness take hold, and so we are resolved to fade in the night with it.”

“We Are Shadows” is now available across all digital streaming platforms, and listeners are invited to experience the commanding presence that Kittie, completed by co-founder and drummer Mercedes Lander, guitarist Tara McLeod and bassist Ivy Vujic, has long been celebrated for. As they continue to write their next chapter, Kittie cements their status as true metal icons, never pulling any punches while boldly exploring the depths of their artistry. Stay tuned for more on Kittie’s global metal domination coming soon.
