Amsterdam’s The Klittens share the news that their new EP Butter is set for release on 8th March 2024. They also follow up previous single ‘Universal Experience‘ with the off-kilter ‘Atlas’ their second single from the EP. Here the band takes a moment to reflect on the strange principle of promises, how can you speak on behalf of a future you? The band’s vocalist Yaël Dekker says on the subject:
“How do you know you’ll still want tomorrow what you want now? Let alone wanting it forever. How can you even say you will, when you have no idea who you’ll be then? Is a promise a feeling or a thought? Then what is more important in life, taking vows or keeping them?”
Since their inception, The Klittens have climbed out from the cracks of the fervent Amsterdam underground scene and onto some acclaimed stages. Mixing the catchiness of pop and fuzz with the darkness of art-rock and post-punk, they’ve crafted a sound that’s truly and twistedly their own. What initially began as an outlet for the group, both creatively and politically, mutated into more of a musical life mission for its members. Their DIY approach, from song-writing to booking shows and tour management, is what make The Klittens the ragtag bunch of misfits they are.
And more good news. The Klittens will return for further UK shows in January with their friends in Personal Trainer.
