Well, yes, from a certain perspective he might fit the cryptic description.
But she's talking about another boarder there :)!

noisereductions 12.05.2007 11:36 AM

It's been quite a while since we've thought about Free Kitten, the only-badasses-need-apply supergroup featuring Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon, Pussy Galore's Julie Cafritz, Yoshimi P-We of Boredoms, and, at one point, Pavement bassist Mark Ibold. It's been more than a decade since their last record, Sentimental Education, and since then, all parties involved have made some pretty kickass music outside of the realm of feline gratis.
But we'll do a whole lot more thinking about Free Kitten between now and May 20, when Ecstatic Peace issues Inherit, the group's third proper LP. Though they're minus an Ibold this time out (he must be busy with that Pavement reunion PSYCH), the disc sports a little guest axe-work from Mr. J Mascis. Fair trade?

By the by, that photo up there ain't just two ladies dressed up like guitar-slingin' wizards. It's two ladies (Gordon and Cafritz) dressed up like guitar-slingin' wizards at the video shoot for the exceptionally titled "Free Kitten on the Mountain", which you'll want to keep an eye peeled for.
And, if you're in New York City between now and April 9, you'll want to stop into the K.S. Art gallery, where an exhibition of Kim Gordon's abstract watercolors is gracing the walls. The show will also include a sound work created by Gordon in collaboration with that Thurston guy she hangs out with from time to time.

Inherit:

01 Erected Girl
02 Surf's Up
03 SeaSick
04 Free Kitten on the Mountain
05 Roughshod
06 Help Me
07 The Poet
08 Billboard
09 Bananas
10 Monster Eye
11 Sway

I figured Mark would have joined in on the fun since he's been freaking touring with them for over a year!!

Great !

Someone,please,know if Free Kitten released some video clips in the past?
some of the singles have a official video clip?
(I was searching in the archives section but nothing) :confused:

Katy 03.10.2008 06:07 PM

these are the only things close

Dave Markey's grunge pedal short which kinda doubles as a promo for Free Kitten shot in 94
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tthNtD6jqe8

Habib and Kim made this one with Kim's nieces for a Kill Rock Stars vidzine in 1998
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSv-l6fRpJw

this is not official in anyway, but a live clip of Kitten in Tokyo in 93
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNn0s6k4eaU

noisereductions 03.10.2008 08:35 PM

I never realized that CHabib made the "Teenie Weenie" vid.

Thanks mate :D I enjoyed all that footage ...I never saw that Kill Rock Stars
footage...

So, that means,"FK on the Mountain" will be the first (and maybe only) Free Kitten official video clip...

(in case that pitchforkmedia photo of Kim and Cafritz is really from a video shoot)...

i agree and really look forward to the proper release now,

nico99 04.03.2008 12:06 PM

The press kit says it was recorded at J Mascis place during summer 2008. So that's way they were able to keep so secret! They recorded it in the futute!

krastian 04.03.2008 04:59 PM

To me, the only track that sounds like old school Free Kitten is "Bananas."

Everyneurotic 04.03.2008 05:08 PM

Nothing new, but still.

pitchfork is streaming the song "seasick" from the album and is available for download, this time we get the song in it's entirety


http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/page/f...ick-mp3-stream

after hearing the part the press kit teaser left off, think there is great vocal interplay at the end of the song
