KALAMITY KILLS continues their relentless ascent with the announcement of their self-titled debut album, Kalamity Kills (Expanded Edition), set for release September 9, 2025 on CD via their own label, PERO RECORDINGS. The announcement arrives with the release of a powerful visualizer available for hit single "Afraid" available HERE. The Expanded Edition of Kalamity Kills will feature not only new tracks, but alt. mixes as well!
Hot on the heels of their Billboard Mainstream Rock and Mediabase Active Rock success with “Starry Skies (988)”—which spent 9 weeks in the Billboard Top 40 and 12 weeks on the Mediabase charts—KALAMITY KILLS channels their uncompromising energy into a fierce anthem that demands attention.
Produced and mixed by Jamey Perrenot, “Afraid” is a bold declaration of resilience and empowerment, driven by razor-sharp guitar riffs, searing vocals, and lyrics that defy submission. Written by Perrenot and Jamie Rowe, the track introduces Julia Lauren Bullock, KALAMITY KILLS’ dynamic new bassist, whose harmonies and background vocals bring a fresh intensity to the band’s sonic identity. While Rob Bodley brings the power on drums in the live lineup, the studio version features a thunderous performance by Ray Luzier of KORN, further elevating the track’s urgency and fire.
The expanded CD edition of Kalamity Kills, which includes “Afraid” and additional exclusive material, will be available in limited quantities starting September 9. A candy apple red vinyl edition is scheduled to follow in April 2026.
