The veteran troupe, whose collective resume spans a heavy spectrum from sludge to prog to black metal, in bands including LORD ALMIGHTY, BARISHI, MO’YNOQ, PRAYER FOR CLEANSING, and BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME is going to release its Lifeforce Records debut Bitter Lucid Truth in October 2025.

VALLETTA’s second proper release embraces what guitarist and singer Keenan Carroll describes as “anger, repulsion and intolerance toward the current political landscape.” But for all its confrontational inspiration, it’s also one of the year’s most thrilling metal releases.
With Bitter Lucid Truth, the quartet of Carroll, drummer Justin Valletta, bassist Cody Rogers, and guitarist/backing vocalist Will Goodyear, churn negative emotions into forceful, dynamic and “just genuinely pissed-off” outbursts that are equally searing and soaring.
U.S. tours are planned for August and October of this year, surrounding the EP’s October release. In 2026, VALLETA will accompany a European tour with a re-release of the band’s debut album Summer also expected through Lifeforce Records.
August tour dates with NOCUOUS LUST
8/13 - Philadelphia, PA at Bonk's Til Close Bar
8/14 - Washington, DC at Pie Shop
8/15 - Richmond, VA at The Warehouse
8/16 - Raleigh, NC at Chapel of Bones, Slutfest
Stay tuned for more release info, preorder start, tour dates, etc. coming soon.
