The Music
Kiss the Girl's music conveys passion, sexuality and mystery. It is a celebration of feeling and being alive, an expression of the extreme highs and lows that we all experience if we have the courage to feel.
Their new single, "Catwalk," epitomizes this with a driving primal dance-rock beat and lyrics that explore the temptation and seduction of wealth, which drives many to desire power over others. "All that you want/and all that you need/and all that you'll do to make the city bleed/Swallow the world/to get your fill/the city slide is either kiss or kill." As with many things in life, there is a beauty to the darkness, and that contradiction is at the core of "Catwalk". The savage guitar attack of the chorus expresses the singer's outrage at those who step over others for the sake of power and wealth. The breathy female backing vocal is the sound of temptation.
The next single, "Ride," is sung to a potential lover, who stands on the brink of change, unsure and seeking to gain the courage to leave behind the safe and familiar. The background mantra, "Get your body right tonight" and "Get your mind right tonight," sung by a sensual female voice, coax the potential lover like a siren to leap into the unknown - a total lust for life. The words and music convey a mysterious nighttime rendezvous and the sensuality of speeding in a car at night, as well as mythical metaphors reminiscent of T-Rex or the writings of Thomas DeQuincey. "My engine's humming, your blood is pumping/Get your body right tonight/My wheels are rolling, your hair is flowing/Get your body right tonight/And in your eyes the phoenix rising/ Get your body right tonight/And you're the only one I'm realizing/So get it right/Come alive/Come and ride." The music has a mysterious ambience and spacious sound, with a driving hypnotic guitar riff and a soulful rhythm that spins further and further out of control toward a dizzying crescendo.
