Produced in Nashville by multi-instrumentalist Jamey Perrenot, “The Chemistry of Meant to Be” throws out the tired tropes of saccharine serenades and instead embraces the complexities of real love. Soaring vocals, Perrenot’s exceptional guitars, and Luzier’s thunderous beats create a soundscape that’s both intimate and anthemic. It’s a song that celebrates connection, vulnerability, and the electric spark that ignites between two souls.

“I wanted to write a hard rock love song for modern times that felt genuine, something that people could really connect with,” says Kalamity Kills frontman Jamie Rowe. “It’s not about cheesy lyrics or unrealistic expectations. It’s about the raw energy, the unexplainable pull that draws two people together.”

The collaboration with Ray Luzier adds a new dimension to Kalamity Kills‘ sound. Luzier’s unmistakable drumming style injects a dose of Korn‘s signature aggression, perfectly complementing the song’s passionate core. “Having Ray on drums was an absolute dream come true,” Rowe enthuses. “His energy and talent are undeniable, and he brought a whole new level of power to the song. I really don’t think another drummer would have brought this track to life in such a big way. We had such a blast with him and his engineer, Scott Bush. The studio hangs were always great.”

“The Chemistry of Meant to Be” is more than just a love song; it’s a statement. It’s a testament to the power of genuine connection in a world that often feels cynical and disconnected. With its infectious melody, powerful vocals, and undeniable groove, this single is sure to resonate with anyone who’s ever experienced the magic of true love. Rowe adds, “We were fortunate to have the band introduced at radio last October by SiriusXM’s Octane station. They added our cover of “I Still Believe”, a song that most people know from The Lost Boys film. Since then, many other stations have gotten on board with Kills. I’ve always felt that radio will be a key part of our success! I’m stoked to be able to release this song to them in 2024!”

“The Chemistry of Meant to Be” is available now on all streaming platforms.

Kalamity Kills released their self-titled debut album on September 15, 2023. Funded by fans via Kickstarter and produced and engineered by multi-instrumentalist Jamey Perrenot in East Nashville, TN, the album features guest appearances from Ray Luzier (Korn), Kiarely Castillo (Conquer Divide), Ace Von Johnson (L.A. Guns), Greg Upchurch (3 Doors Down), Luke Easter (Tourniquet), Julia Lauren Bullock (The Foxies/The Dead Deads), as well as Jamie Rowe’s former Guardian bandmate, Tony Palacios.

“I’m so excited to release this album,” says Jamie Rowe. “It’s been a long time coming! There have been many challenges, but it’s been worth the wait. I’m so proud of the songs and can’t wait for everyone to hear them. From day one, Jamey Perrenot understood what I wanted to do musically and went above and beyond to turn the sounds I heard in my head into reality! Even though

Kalamity Kills is my songs and vision, it wouldn’t be what it is without Jamey.”

Kalamity Kills is an 11-track album that blends hard rock, metal, pop, and electronic rock elements. The album explodes with heavy guitars, pounding drums, and passionate vocals. The songs on ‘Kalamity Kills’ are about love, loss, pain, self-destruction, hope, and ultimately, redemption.

“This album is most certainly about my journey through life,” says Jamie Rowe. “It’s about the deep valleys and the mountaintop seasons. Raw and unfiltered, it’s a musical story about finding hope in this chaotic world we are living in. It could be anyone’s story, but it is told with my own accent throughout. Musically, it was great to have so many musicians I respect become a part of this record. I like ‘big’ sounding rock and roll like my childhood heroes made! I also threw out the rulebook on debut albums. I included not one, but two reimagined 80s covers, ‘What’s On Your Mind (Pure Energy)’ (originally by Information Society and featuring Kiarely from Conquer Divide) and ‘I Still Believe’ (originally by The Call but also made famous by Tim Cappello on ‘The Lost Boys’ film soundtrack). Both turned out killer!”

With a debut album of strong songs and the lineup of talented guest musicians, Kalamity Kills is ready to make some noise in the hard rock world and beyond.
