P.O.D. is planning on releasing their first new record in four years Veritas sometime during spring 2024.
According to guitarist Marcos Curiel in an interview with KDVV/V100, the new record features guest spots from Lamb Of God's Randall Blythe and Jinjer's Tatiana Shmailyuk. The first single named "Dropd" is due out September 21 with Blythe, which you can check out from a recent show sans Blythe below. It's got a lot of record scratches.
"Yes, sir. Actually, we started our set with a new song. The song's called 'Drop' and we shot the video for it recently. And it features Randy Blythe from Lamb Of God. And it's the first song on our record that comes out — the record actually comes out spring of 2024. That song drops September 21st, and the video worldwide."
"The new record's called Veritas. It's the old Latin dialect. You know, the old one that the priests are laying down when people are demonly possessed. It stands for truth. It's our truth because we wrote this record during the pandemic. Individually and collectively, it's our truth as a band, what we've been through, what we've all been through during that time, dude.
"I can't wait for you guys to hear it, man. It's pretty cool. We also got Tatiana from Jinjer on a track. And we have Cove Reber. He sang for Scary Kids [Scaring Kids] and Saosin. And he also sings in a new band called Dead American. He's on a track."
