Kicked In The Teeth Announce New Album ‘Watling Street Chambers’ – Out 9th May
Kicked In The Teeth (KITT) are gearing up to unleash their latest full-length ‘Watling Street Chambers’ on 9th May via Rare Vitamin Records, bringing a no-frills, high-energy punk assault straight from the salt mines of Northwich. Packed with their signature blend of melodic hooks and relentless hardcore energy, the record follows their split cassette with The Queers and sees the band continue to fuse UK82, D-beat, and classic punk influences with a distinctly British grit.
New Single ‘Savour The Victory’ – A Raucous Reminder to Live in the Moment
The album’s lead single, ‘Savour The Victory’, is out now, complete with a Guns N’ Roses-inspired music video. The track is a rallying cry against monotony, urging listeners to appreciate life’s small victories and escape the daily grind.
Vocalist Jay Concannon explains:
“The first song on the album is hopeful. It’s a stark reminder that life is short, and what is most important is often right in front of you. We have our own problems, but we’re lucky to be here. This song is an acknowledgment of that and a determination to break the monotonous grind.”
Raw, Relentless, and Unapologetically Northern
With a lineup featuring ex-members of Incisions and The Business, KITT’s sound draws from the melodic urgency of Bad Religion and Descendents, fused with the raw aggression of Black Flag. They’ve already shared stages with Snuff, UK Subs, GBH, Cockney Rejects, The Exploited, The Drowns, and Wonk Unit, carving out a reputation as one of the UK’s most ferocious live acts.
The album was recorded at Pressure Drop Studios in Stockport and mixed/mastered by guitarist Joe Penny, promising an uncompromising blast of high-octane punk fury. Three key singles stand out:
- ‘Savour The Victory’ – A reminder that life is short and worth celebrating.
- ‘There Will Be Nothing’ – A full-throttle anthem about taking risks.
- ‘Werewolves’ – A snarling, feral critique of modern overstimulation.
