Composition
In the context of the band's latest full-length effort, "Kutchur Katela Flala!" is track 4 of 12. It casts aside the deathgrind-sounding nature permeating most of the album in favor of a playful alt-metal style. Using his keyboard, bassist Skylar Vega emulates organ playing for the first 9 seconds of the piece. This then transitions into Ash Erickson's (distorted) evil laughter and the actual song begins, which has a certain whimsy to it that – once again – isn't quite present on the other numbers. Nadav Nirenberg's trombone and Matt Rippetoe's sax both enhance the song's quirky character. Erickson tends to deliver the verses in something resembling a croaky whisper, while she sings in a much fuller tone during the chorus, only to deliver bloodcurdling screams for both the bridge and outro. The guitar parts supplied by Ray Drieberg and Chance Bottings are appropriately carefree, while Micah Trevant's drum work is groove-laden throughout. Ash can be faintly heard stifling a giggle at the end of the song, which was edited out for the music video edit.

"Kutchur Katela Flala!"'s title is a reference to a Japanese anime franchise called Little Witch Academia, a series that both Erickson and Trevant are really fond of. Also, the lyrics themselves are told from the standpoint of Sucy, a fan favorite character.

Music video
Almost a whole week after this track was launched as a single, Triple Seven debuted the official music video for "Kutchur Katela Flala!" on June 7. MV was filmed by David Brodsky, who has directed vids for outfits such as Strapping Young Lad, Pig Destroyer, and The Agonist. The video's storyline centers around a teenaged sorceress who engages in leisurely activity. Throughout its duration, she pulls tricks on those who enter her forest-like home, smokes e-cigs and simultaneously casts random spells, etc. The band members themselves aren't seen performing the song, but they do show up portraying fictional roles; for instance, Vega and Bottings play classy zombies with a taste for free-form jazz while Erickson is an immortal yoga teacher.
