The Lucid is now streaming their new single "Mumps" off their coming EP Saddle Up And Ride. If you're looking for some solid radio-friendly rock with a big ol' hook in the chorus, then this one is for you.
The Lucid, whose lineup includes former Megadeth bassist David Ellefson and Fear Factory drummer Mike Heller, is joined by Insane Clown Posse vocalist Violent J for two songs on Saddle Up And Ride. You can check out the title track with Violent J here, and pre-orders for Saddle Up And Ride are available here.
"We are thrilled to join forces with an iconic artist like Violent J," said The Lucid guitarist Drew Fortier of the coming EP. "He added such a kick ass and dangerous element to 'Saddle Up and Ride' and 'Sweet Toof.' J has without a doubt taken The Lucid to another level."
"As far as live shows go, we had to cancel those shows back in May 2021 due to my cancer situation resulting in surgery which I have fully recovered from but with David and [drummer Mike Heller] looking to have a busy 2023 with Kings of Thrash/Dieth and Raven/Fear Factory respectively, it's looking like the most pragmatic route would be if Vin and I team up for some acoustic shows to promote The Lucid so be on the lookout for that."
