After letting the news sink in, Kittie's Morgan Lander has issued a statement regarding the death of bassist Trish Doan, expressing how close the two were.
Kittie, who burst onto the mainstream metal scene in 1999 with their debut 'Spit,' after forming in Canada in 1996, are celebrating their past with a 20th anniversary documentary project.
For Kittie fans, the sight of the current lineup of Kittie together with some of the band's former members in a photo is enough to garner their attention. But it doesn't stop there as the recent photo shoot was part of a promotion to announce plans for a crowd-funding campaign to put together a new documentary DVD and book to celebrate the band's 20th anniversary.
Canada’s Kittie brought the metal genre to its knees with their debut album, 'Spit,' in 1999. Morgan was only 17 while Mercedes was a mere 15 years old when the album was released, but goes on record to say that the songs were written when they were even younger.
Canadian metal outfit Kittie are on the road in support of their sixth studio album, ‘I’ve Failed You,’ and now, the gals are gearing up to release a best-of compilation this fall.
The new season of CBS reality show 'Big Brother' kicks off next Thursday, July 12, at 9PM ET, with a headbanger in the cast. Onetime Kittie bassist Jenn Arroyo, who was with the band from 2002 through 2005, will appear on the show.
