London, Ontario's KITTIE will release their new album, I've Failed You, in North America on August 30th via eOne Music. Vocalist/guitarist Morgan Lander recently spoke with James Reaney at the London Free Press about the record and commented specifically on the track 'Empires (Part 2)':

"Empires (Part 2) is the second half, and more frantic portion of a two-part idea. Part 1 is the acoustic calm before the storm while Part 2 is a full on hurricane. The subject matter likens a union or relationship to the idea of a great empire and as history has taught us; even the most mighty and powerful of empires crumble and fall eventually. Nothing is forever."

'I've Failed You'

'What Have I Done'
