P.O.D. "Veritas"

Mascot Records is P.O.D.to announce the new studio album from hard rock icons, P.O.D., entitled 'Veritas'. Five years removed from their previous studio album, 'Circles', P.O.D. returns with arguably their hardest-hitting record yet. "We're still here and creating some of the best music we've ever made," says guitarist Marcos Curiel. This go-round, however, P.O.D. decided to get back to the basics. "These songs are a throwback to me and remind me of the raw, unbridled energy of classic South San Diego P.O.D.," offers bassist Traa Daniels. Written over several years, with the band typically writing a tune or two at a time in L.A. with The Heavy, 'Veritas' is a cannon shot of adrenaline to the ear drums. And for a band that has never shied away from wearing their heart on their sleeve, it's also one of the most emotionally inspired albums of their career.
