Enter: The Conquering Chicken is The Gits’ second, and final, full-length studio album. The Gits’ vocalist, lyricist, and frontwoman, Mia Zapata, was murdered in Seattle during the few weeks they spent recording the album that summer of 1993. Produced by the band and longtime friend Scott Benson, Enter: The Conquering Chicken was released posthumously on C/Z Records in 1994. The Gits formed in 1986 at Antioch College in Ohio, and moved together to Seattle in 1989 as the world was taking notice of the local scene. Although their raucous, blues-infused punk, powered by Mia’s indelible vocals, didn’t quite fit the mold being cast by their Pacific Northwest peers, the band immediately found a tight foothold and strong following.
