Gato Negro
Gato Negro (Spanish: "Black Cat") is the third and final studio album by American rock band 7 Year Bitch, released on March 12, 1996, through Atlantic Records. The band recorded the album with producer Billy Anderson at Brilliant Studios in San Francisco in October 1995. Gato Negro is a punk rock, hard rock and noise rock album featuring a heavier, slower sound, and displays greater musical variation and dynamics compared to 7 Year Bitch's previous albums. The album spawned three singles, "Miss Understood", "The History of My Future", and "24,900 Miles Per Hour", with a music video being filmed for the latter.
Gato Negro received mixed reviews from music critics; whilst some considered its songwriting to be an improvement from 7 Year Bitch's previous albums, others found it average or generic-sounding. To promote the album, 7 Year Bitch toured North America as a headlining act and on the Summerland Tour with Everclear, Spacehog and Tracy Bonham. Guitarist Roisin Dunne left the band thereafter, leading to the cancellation of a planned tour of Europe. Following a hiatus, 7 Year Bitch toured with Lisa Fay Beatty as their new guitarist before disbanding in late 1997.
