Bitter Lucid Truth [CD]

Valletta - Bitter Lucid Truth [CD]

VALLETTA unleashes pure fury on their second EP, "Bitter Lucid Truth", out this October via
Germany's LIFEFORCE RECORDS. Fueled by raw anger toward today's political climate, the
Raleigh, NC quartet transforms venom into powerful, melodic outbursts that are both soaring
and scathing.
Following their 2024 debut "Summer" (Forcefield Records), this new release dials up the
intensity - wielding riffs like weapons and blending anthemic hooks with neo-crust fire.
Highlights like "Cold Death" and "Spitting the Word" channel influences from Tribulation and
Kvelertak to Tragedy, showcasing the band's dynamic evolution.
Written and recorded in early 2025, the "Bitter Lucid Truth" EP was tracked by Al Jacob (He Is
Legend, Wailin Storms) at Warrior Sound with input from Inter Arma's TJ Childers, and
mastered by Matt Tuttle (Codeseven). It's a lean, explosive statement and a bold step forward
from a lineup whose pedigree includes Lord Almighty, Mo'ynoq, Prayer For Cleansing and
Between the Buried And Me.
VALLETTA hits the road in the U.S. this August and October 2025, with a European tour and re-
release of "Summer" slated for 2026.
