Hear Kittie reflect on “the uncertainty of a future that we can no longer control” with their latest single, We Are Shadows…
February’s comeback single Eyes Wide Open clearly wasn’t just a one-off: Kittie have already shared another killer new song called We Are Shadows.
This is the second new tune from the legendary metallers in a whopping 13 years, and it lyrically very much reflects where things are at for both them and the entire planet in 2024.
“We Are Shadows is about the uncertainty of a future that we can no longer control,” explains vocalist and guitarist Morgan Lander. “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.”
