About Me
My name is Kitty Saric, but most of you probably know me more as Metallic Kitty. I’m the fronting the Melodic Thrash Metal band DECADENCE from Stockholm Sweden as our lead vocalist/screamer.
I’m 21 years old and I’ve been singing this kind of music since I was 12 years old when I had just picked up the guitar for the first time. That was really the start of it all, ever since Decadence was founded in 2003 it really made it the meaning of my life. Ever since then I’ve been working hard with this band, as the great passion it is.
I started off to listen to Metallica which became my guide into the world of Metal. I believe that since Thrash was the first thing I started listening to, it remained closest to my heart from then and on. I find so much inspiration, being an artist, in this type of music. I’m influenced by it when writing riffs as well as developing and experimenting with my vocals. Listening to Thrash, naturally, made me move further into Death Metal but Thrash has always remained my favorite. It’s filled with emotions, energy and lyrics stating strong opinions which I find most inspiring. To mention some more inspiring bands that came after Metallica I could say: Death, Kreator, Vader, Testament, Destruction, Annihilator, Megadeth, Exodus and the like. I find both vocal and instrumental inspiration in acts such as mentioned above which constantly makes me what to express myself in my band Decadence.
I feel the time when music literally comes alive is on stage. I believe that the live experience of a band always is much more special than being heard on an album. It’s great when a band can connect with the fans and express their music on stage. This is the reason why Decadence has always been called a live band, because the stage is our home.
I’m also running the band as the manager and also running our record label HTI Records which I started up to help Decadence even more. If you want to get in touch just send me a message here at MySpace.
I don’t only see Metal as music – it’s a lifestyle. Metal is my life and everything evolves around it. It’s the music I listen to, the clothes I wear, the long hair I saved, the opinions I express, the decisions I make, the band I have, the dreams I have, the goals that I want to reach and the person I am.
