Nine Lives is the follow-up to Vendetta — the closing of a door on serious betrayal. Track by track, the album works through each act of back-stabbing and wrongdoing that came before it, before turning the page entirely and rising from the ashes into something new. It's Allie Cat's final chapter as a solo act before Abbie Lee and Samantha Blight joined her to form Allie Cat & The Strays, making Nine Lives both a reckoning and a farewell to that era of her story.
