Did Nu Metal's KITTIE Peak Too Early with Spit?
In this video, we dive deep into the story of Kittie, the all-female metal band that broke boundaries and turned heads with their groundbreaking debut album Spit in 1999. Despite the album’s success and the band’s unique position in the metal scene, Kittie struggled to maintain the same level of mainstream recognition in the years that followed.
Join us as we explore the challenges Kittie faced, from shifting trends in the music industry to lineup changes, label issues, and the complexities of carving out a lasting space in a male-dominated genre. We'll examine how these factors impacted their trajectory and why their subsequent albums, while showcasing growth and talent, didn’t replicate the massive success of Spit.
Whether you're a long-time fan or discovering Kittie for the first time, this analysis will provide insight into what made this band special and what ultimately hindered their continued success.

    From a musical perspective I think the line up on the first two albums was the best and most unique with Poland and Samuelson, the jazz fusion background of those guys along with Dave's twists and turns with his rhythm playing and riffs was a great blend. Poland is an insanely underrated guitarist even Marty had issues nailing his leads. Marty & Nick were the right guys for Megadeth to capture a bigger audience though and that line up lasted for a good run.

    Hi John!!! I have a couple of those reissues with the extra tracks like in "Fireball" and "Who Do..." and it's a very odd decision to leave some great songs out of some releases. also i think their career had a lot of picks and valleys in their 70's career you can say that "In Rock" and "Machine Head" are the picks and "Stormbringer" on the lower side..... I think at some point you can do a tier list ranking of their studio catalogue. cheers and be well

    Ritchie Blackmore allegedly asked David Coverdale to join him in a new venture. David decided to stay in the Deep Purple fold.Ritchie had played David his new song ideas,but David couldn’t be convinced. Ronnie James Dio from ‘75-‘78 was a natural musical partner for Ritchie as history shows us. I saw an interview with Jimmy Bain,where he said he was in a car with Ritchie and was playing the Stormbringer tape. Ritchie took the cassette/8 track out the player and threw it out the window. I wish I could find that interview footage now!

    By the time 1975 came along, Ritchie was tired of the roller coaster ride of changes and wanted to do his own thing with Ronnie James Dio. Who could blame him. Dio was a one of a kind vocal talent. Ritchie had been in Purple since the beginning in 1968 being the co founder along with Jon Lord. It was time to move on to fulfill his neo classical side. Ironically, Purple died in a year after Blackmore left. My favorite Deep Purple album is the one released in 1969 with mach one lineup. Blackmore uses a wah pedal on that album more than any other. The mach 2 lineup was toxic especially between Blackmore and Gillan which led to the mach 3 lineup which was good at the beginning with Burn, but after a year of the new lineup Blackmore was bored and wanted to do his own thing with Dio and later Cozy Powell.

    Slaves and Masters is by far and away the most underrated work Richie Blackmore has been involved in.
