KiTTiEKaTs Opinion
Ok, basically i'm really sick and tired of reading magazine articles about KITTIE. As a fan, i know the enormous amount of talent KITTIE has, and it pisses me off to read an article about them and all i hear about is how sexy they are and how they are hardcore chicks and about how young they are... every article i read says the same shit! and NOTHING about the music... For example... Read This HIT PARADER Article...
Now you see? As a fan, doesn't that piss you off? I know it makes me mad...
Another thing i hate as a KiTTiE fan is how MTV thinks they are so cool comparing KiTTiE to bands like KoRn and Limp Bizkit... Read This MTV article... When i read that i was like WHAT THE FUCK?! KiTTiE sounds nothing like any of those bands! KiTTiE has their own chick hardcore metal sound of their own! and WHY the need to compare them to trendy guy bands? i just dont get it...
Ok, the Last place i thought i'd Ever see KiTTiE was in Teen Magazine! But yup, they were in there! Its not really an article, more of just a summery. Once again, like with MTV, KiTTiE is compared to KoRn... arg! KiTTiE has nothing to do with Limp Bizkit OR KoRn but these teenie-bopper magazines keep comparing them! oh well... read it for yourself.
The band obviously would agree with me about the above bad artical writings!
*Morgan said "I read my own press, and i read interviews with other
bands in the magazines, and people ask other bands the pertinent
questions, questions that were pertinent to the writing, critical
questions about their career and the motives behind it, and where
they're headed. Then i turn to our interviews, and it's all about how
they're young, they're cute, and all this exterior bullshit. I'd rather
have people judge us for what they feel about us - Not because we're
girls or because we're young, but at a musical level."
*Mercedes said "I'd rather have people judge us on our musical content,
than what the fuck gender we are. So what if our gender is different?
We're doing the same thing as a lot of other bands out there, so why
judge us at any different level?"
*Morgan said "We don't fall under rap-rock or techno-metal, because
that's not the type of music we play. - There's no rap. There's some
singing, there's sone screaming, it's fast, and it's heavy. I've heard
people say a lot of different things, but straight-aggressive is where
i think we should be"
KiTTiE was voted Alternative Press' BAND OF THE WEEK 4-17-00
I must comend METAL EDGE magazine. They are the first magazine i've
read an article in kittie about and not been mad afterwards. They're
Jan 2001 issue was amazing! It had a 4 page article with a 2 page picture.
The article was the complete opposite from what you'd expect to see.
It was all about the music! Not going on and on about how young and sexy
and Canadian they are. It talked about they're music and them as people
and musicians, not girl power freaked fems... it also included an
interview with the band concerning KITTIE, not THE GIRLS.
well email me and let me know what you think... HardCorePunkChick@Cutey.com i'll post all emails on this page...

hey i visited your kittie site that u posted in my
guestbook at Gothic Kittie. i totally agree with the
opinion you have there, although towards the end of
some articles they start talking about up coming
projects but it's not the main idea of the article. i
love metal edge too. it's the best magazine out there.
they dont just have the popular bullshit. they have
lots of older bands and unknown bands in there that
circus and hit parader probably dont even know of.
good job. i gotta go look at the rest of your site
now.
bye,
