about

Three years after vocalist Alex Orosa, desperate to get the band back together, reunited with guitarist and younger brother Nic in Manchester, their new project Valetta have announced their debut single Irregular Low, a brooding storm of wistful melodies and electronic-infused psychedelia.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Regularly low, but no more significant damage done
Does that mean we’ve won?
Underneath the moon assume positions that I want you to
And I will be your groom

Cos I could be your one true love
Pour me in your cup of pain and let me fill it up again
I could be your guiding light
Tell me all your hopes and dreams and give them up so we can be together

Wait a minute, I don’t think the sea is deeper with you in it
It’s the fear of jumping in too early, of your throat my fingers are not worthy
I can’t reach
Give me something I could not ask you for without us touching
A thousand voices crying for the silence but the weight of the world on her eyelids I can remember

If everything that burns returns to whatever it used to be
Take a flame to me
Momentary highs disguise the feeling they’re just stopping by
Queen strayed from the hive

Cos I could be your one true love
I will bend you into shapes you didn’t know that you could make
I could be your guiding light
Tell me why you feel ashamed, I’ll make sure that you feel this way forever

Wait a minute, I don’t think the sea is deeper with you in it
It’s the fear of jumping in too early, of your throat my fingers are not worthy
I can’t reach
Give me something I could not ask you for without us touching
A thousand voices crying for the silence but the weight of the world on her eyelids I can remember

Wait a minute, I thought by now there might be something in it
Mine a dull, unwelcome revelation, or a diluted form of pure elation
I can’t reach
Don’t refuse it, patience ain’t a virtue I can’t wait to lose it
Cos reality is seldom real, you will never know the way I feel
So cut through me

about

Valetta Manchester, UK

Valetta are the hastily assembled barricade standing between the listener and a
tsunami of unrestrained cerebral energy and beatlesque harmonies, relentlessly accelerated by the tectonic shifting of time signatures. The band frantically assemble these raw
ingredients into indelible psychedelic shanties that cascade towards the beleaguered fishing
village that is Manchester’s psychedelic rock scene
