Boasting a unique and distinctive blend of operatic vocal harmonies and hard rock melodies, Italian sextet Lacuna Coil have risen through the ranks to become one of the genre’s most promising outfits.

With the release of 2002’s ‘Comalies‘ – their third for label Century Media – the band took the music world by storm, garnering support from fans and pundits alike the world over.

However, it wouldn’t be until the summer of 2004 that serious mainstream success would reveal itself courtesy of a second stage appearance on Ozzfest, where the band consistently outsold all competition to become the festival’s leading sellers in both merchandise and hard product. ‘Comalies’ has since gone on to become Century Media’s biggest selling album ever, shifting over 300,000 copies in the United States alone.

After nearly 4 years without fresh material, ‘Our Truth‘ is the leading single from forthcoming effort ‘Karmacode‘ out on April 3rd. A spine-tingling concoction of eastern-tinged vocal melodies sprawled across a canvas of down tuned riffery; it’s a clear indication that with release looming ever closer, 2006 may well be Lacuna Coil’s biggest and best yet.
