Louder Than Life is about to get a serious blast of early 2000s aggression when Kittie hit the stage, armed with 25 years’ worth of rage and resilience. The Canadian heavyweights are celebrating the 25th anniversary of their debut album Spit, the record that introduced the world to a band of young women who weren’t just ready to play metal’s game, but to burn the freaking rulebook.
When Spit dropped in 2000, it was a gut punch to the scene. Raw, snarling and impossible to ignore. It carved out space for women in a genre that had been a boys’ club for too long. Tracks like ‘Brackish’ and ‘Charlotte’ didn’t just hit, they tore at the walls of what was expected. Now, with their reunion gaining steam and their live shows hitting harder than ever, Kittie are ready to remind Louder Than Life exactly why they matter.
Expect this set to be more than nostalgia. Kittie aren’t just cashing in on the past, they’re proving that their sound still cuts deep. Morgan Lander’s voice still snarls like it did 25 years ago and the band’s groove laden riffs are built to shake festival grounds to the core.
Fans can hope for a set stacked with Spit favourites, maybe even a surprise or two. Who knows? Maybe we’ll get a taste of whatever’s coming next from a band that’s never been content to sit quietly.
So, if you’re at Louder Than Life, don’t sleep on Kittie’s set. This is the kind of anniversary celebration that promises blood, sweat, and volume. Just the way we like it!
Kittie tear it up at Louder Than Life, right before Cypress Hill on the Saturday. The festival running September 25–28, 2025 in Louisville, Kentucky. Tickets and full lineup details are at louderthanlifefestival.com. Don’t miss it.
