October 1st, 2021Kitner announced the release of their new LP titled "Shake The Spins" set for release on October 1, 2021. Sometimes the smallest moments can be the jumping point for bigger things to come. For example, the beginning of Kitner starts over sharing beers with a co-worker while gushing about The Get Up Kids.

"’Post-Boredom’ was the first song I...
