Witness the Return of Trish Doan

By
...To Kittie, that is.

Bad-ass bassist Trish Doan returns to all-female Canadian metal band Kittie this year, hopefully completing the final incarnation of the band.  Seriously, there's an entire section on their Wikipedia page dedicated to chronicling the comings and goings of various members.

With the constant changes in their lineup, I can't even imagine what hell it is to have to teach new members old songs every couple of years.  So it's good that the band is getting to celebrate the return of a member, rather than just a departure.

Fans will recall that Doan performed in Kittie from 2005 - 2007, when she left, in part, for health reasons.  The Bar hopes she's triumphed over her demons and is ready to spend the rest of her life igniting the stage, because I'll be honest; I tend to pay much more attention to these bands when a beautiful woman of color is part of the lineup.

Doan's return is auspicious.  Kittie intends to embark on a massive North American tour soon, so as the very saccharine K-Pop tries to worm its way onto the American airwaves, fans looking for an Asian idol in an alternate genre may want to check them out.

Peep:

Words cannot express how much their music has improved from the days of Spit.  By the way, did anyone notice that really hot dude at the end?  In case you didn't the first time:

    First off, the girls look great. Secondly, the name "Kittie" is boss.

    P.S. My band's name is Pink Cage.

      You have a band?

      Morgan Lander (the lead singer) came up with the name because she wanted something opposite the band's actual sound.

      If they swing my way, I very well might have to go see a show. For old times' sake.

    Girl no. It's imaginary. I am NOT musically inclined. This is something I came up with when I was on medical leave. Percocet and Lortab, what can I say?

At the Bar with Alexis Brown

Fans will recognize metal chanteuse Alexis Brown as the lead singer of Straight Line Stitch . It was a great honor to complete this interview with her today, while she's currently on tour. Alexis, welcome to the bar; pull up a stool and order whatever you want on the house. While you’re at it, tell us about yourself. Thanks for having me. As for a drink...I'm always good with an ice cold Bud of some sort. Now about me... I love Walt Disney's Goofy, old scary movies, love to read old school Harlequin Romance books, love sushi, I have a orange tabby named Waffles (named after Goofy's cat on the Goof Troop Series), I have a Chorkie (Chihuahua & Yorkie mix), & I'm also in a band that I've pretty much lived out on the road with for about the last 10 or so years. How’s the tour going so far? Tour is going well, just busy everyday. I noticed how you mention not intentionally going into heavy metal. How’d that happen? Basically my older brother Moses...

#BlackAltBae: Miles Strand

I stumbled across  Miles Strand on TikTok when he did a metal cover of "Unholy" by Sam Smith. You may have noticed I repost him a lot on Instagram. So when he answered my call for allcomers, I was ecstatic. I reluctantly concluded this awesome interview on June 27th, 2023...but I had to let the man get back to his life. Miles!!! Your version of "Unholy" ruined all other versions for me, including the original (I accidentally heard yours first, and after that, no one else came close). How long have you been making music? HAHAHAHA, oh man, I love that! Well, I started my first (real) band in high school, and that was the first instance where I started trying to actually write and perform my own stuff, so I guess it's been about 23 years that I've been making music!

It is with the utmost pride and pleasure that I present this interview with the legendary alternative model, Roxy Vail . I am eternally grateful for her patience, as I had to steal moments just to get these questions out. After many, many weeks, we officially completed this interview today.   I am a HUGE fan of yours. How long have you been an alternative model? How did you get started? I've been an alternative model since 2012 and got my first professional publication feature in 2014. I got started by first practicing modeling with my twin sibling, London, back in the MySpace days and they would always take my photos and tell me what looks good. We did a lot of "Sitemodeling" back in the early days of early social media before I started getting real modeling work.   What drew you to the alt aesthetic?   Honestly, there was a lot more witchy, spooky or all-around whimsical media at the time when I was coming of age in the early 2000s. Even the "normie" protagon...
