Today, cinematic rock visionaries Earthside unleash Let The Truth Speak – Deluxe Edition, marking two years since their triumphant return. They have also announced their first live shows in Latin America with an appearance at CL Prog Festival in Santiago, Chile on 14-15 March 2026.
To celebrate, the band reveal ‘earthsink,’ an explosive new collaboration with U.S. experimental metal artist Daedric, featured as an exclusive bonus track. The song rises with celestial beauty before crashing down with Earthside’s trademark, world-shaking intensity. Watch the visualizer HERE.
Keyboardist Frank Sacramone reflects on the milestone: “Let The Truth Speak challenged everything—our writing, our production, our entire creative identity. It defined what ‘cinematic rock’ truly means for us. Now, we’re forging a future that can sustain our grandest visions.”
‘earthsink’ was born when Daedric shared a reel of an original vocal idea over the band's song Watching the Earth Sink. Earthside were so struck by it that they invited her onstage during their U.S. tour—one of only two times a guest vocalist has performed with them. Inspired, guitarist Jamie van Dyck rebuilt the track around her soaring vocal motif, ultimately flying to Texas to complete the collaboration in person.
Talking about the song, Jamie says, “Kristyn creates worlds. Working with her expanded the mythos and depth of the piece. We hope this won’t be our last collaboration.”
Kristyn Hope from Daedric adds; "When I first heard "Let the Truth Speak" I was blown away by the cinematic impact of the sound paired with each vocalist's unique quality. I noticed that "Watching the Earth Sink" was purely instrumental so I thought it would be cool to add a short vocal duet over the middle section. When Earthside decided to create an entirely new version to include me on the deluxe release of the album, I was deeply honored. It was quite daunting to approach the full track as I consider their work highly technical, but working with Jamie proved to be rewarding as we finalized the vocals together.”
The anniversary follows a breakthrough year that included their first North American headline tour and the powerful single ‘frozen heart ~ burning world’ building on their enthralling 2024 performances on tour with Soen and Leprous.
Since its release, Let The Truth Speak has delivered a series of standout singles, including the haunting “We Who Lament,” and the award-winning video for All We Knew And Ever Loved featuring Baard Kolstad (Leprous), which earned Best Music Video at the United Artist International Film Festival and screened at festivals worldwide.
The album also included the songs We Who Lament featuring Canadian vocals Keturah, Let The Truth Speak with Daniel Tompkins and Gennady Tkachenko-Papizh and Pattern of Rebirth saw a collaboration with AJ Channer (Fire From The Gods).
A decade after their seismic debut A Dream in Static, Earthside continue to push themselves to the brink. “This album nearly tore our lives apart,” Sacramone admits. “It’s madness—but it’s beautiful.” Jamie adds: “If our debut was about the individual, Let The Truth Speak is about humanity. The world changed, and so did we.”
With new live shows on the horizon, Earthside are continuing to build on their cinematic, world-building sound.
