Ireland’s rising hard rock force Vendetta Love is back with a vengeance, with their brand-new single, ‘Traced Out’.
Speaking of the new single, vocalist/guitarist, Shawn Mullen said; “It’s a song that deals, directly, with the loss of my little brother. I was waiting for the right moment, the right sound or melody, to speak about him. And not in a rose-tinted glasses way either. I wanted whatever the fuck I was going to say to be real and true to my experience with him. And so, you have ‘Traced Out’. I think he’d like it. I’ve never written so directly before. It’s done now. Let it lie.”
Blending the raw grit of Seattle’s grunge scene with the electrifying attitude of LA’s Sunset Strip, Vendetta Love has been making serious waves since their formation in 2015. Over the past few years, they’ve built a formidable reputation, delivering high-octane performances and earning spots alongside heavyweights like Airbourne and Poets Of The Fall, and their 2024 UK tour was a resounding success.
Following the massive global airplay and critical acclaim of ‘Soothe’ and ‘Glue’, the band continued their momentum with ‘Walk Alone’, delivering both a high-energy version and an ‘almost’ acoustic rework. Then came ‘Ode’, an older gem, reintroduced to their rapidly growing fanbase.
Now, with ‘Traced Out’, Vendetta Love turn up the volume once again. Fresh out of the studio and ready to ignite 2025, this new track promises huge riffs, gritty vocals, and the band’s signature fusion of brooding intensity and raw power.
Catch Vendetta Love in Dublin’s Whelans’ on, Saturday, 5th July with guests, Mine Road. Tickets can be purchased here.
