Background and release Australian musician Kita Alexander announced the title and release date of her second studio album on 20 February 2026.
Upon announcement, Alexander said: "Rage has been the catalyst of positive change in my life over the last couple of years. The album is about an emotion I've always had but never understood. It's me looking at it and embracing it as a new friend and realising that I don't have to shut it down or avoid looking at it... Rage has helped me find what truly matters to me and to change my life in ways that work for me."
Critical reception
Peter Gray from the AU Review said "[Rage] is an album that largely inhabits an acoustic, reflective, storytelling space, allowing [her] songwriting to take centre stage. There are moments of sunshine and warmth throughout, but beneath the inviting melodies lies a deeper examination of identity, relationships, self-worth and the stories we tell ourselves to survive".
Women in Pop found Rage to be a "brilliantly crafted" album where Alexander has taken a "taboo topic—rage—and portrayed it in an unexpected way: with gentleness and calm. It is not a collection of songs that grabs you around the throat, but something much better in that it envelopes you in a wash of warm emotion."
