A new Vile Creature song is available online now: a cover of Kittie's "Paperdoll," originally released in 2000 on the band's Spit album.

The song appears on the Send the Pain Below compilation from The Flenser, and is available on vinyl exclusively for Series Three subscription members and is a covers compilation of nu-metal songs.

Speaking to their song choice, Vile Creature offers:

"Kittie is a band that trailblazed, both by bucking metal gender norms and being from southern Ontario. It was a no-brainer for us to cover this, the only non-heavy song from their debut record, and we can only hope we did them justice. Long live Kittie!"

Vile Creature last released Glory, Glory! Apathy Took Helm! in 2020.
