Gato Negro (Spanish: "Black Cat") is the second and final studio album by American rock band 7 Year Bitch, released on March 12, 1996. It was the band's only album released through Atlantic Records, after signing to the label in 1994. [9] [10]
The record spawned three singles: "The History of My Future", "24,900 Miles Per Hour" and "Miss Understood", [11] as well as a video for "24,900 Miles Per Hour".
Gato Negro received mixed reviews from critics. Eric Bensel of Alternative Press wrote that although while the album was "at times a generic grunge [ sic] fronted by the predictable riot grrrl snarl", it provided a "refreshing foil to the testosterone-laden cock-rock that has dominated AOR radio stations for the past 25 years". [5] Entertainement Weekly critic Mike Flatherty dismissed the album as "a humorless clutch of tough-grrrl conventions and abrasive bluster". [8] In her review of Live at Moe (2016), Pitchfork's Estelle Tang called Gato Negro "simultaneously less scrappy and less compelling" than the band's previous albums. [12] In a positive review for Trouser Press, Grant Alden called the album 7 Year Bitch's "most varied, accomplished and coherent outing", praising its instrumentation. [13]
