The Lucidia Project Unveil Powerful New EP “The Twilight Affliction” – Out June 30th

Genre: Alternative Symphonic Metal
For fans of: Dark Tranquility, Katatonia, and Nightwish
Label: Independent

Emerging from the depths of emotional expression and sonic grandeur, The Lucidia Project announce the release of their highly anticipated EP, The Twilight Affliction , available everywhere on June 30th, 2025 . Fusing symphonic metal with alternative, doom, and death metal elements, this six-song release weaves intimate, confessional lyrics through a massive and atmospheric soundscape.

Founded in 2022 by Chase Baldwin (vocals, keyboards) and Benjamin Jacobs (bass), The Lucidia Project blends orchestral arrangements with the weight and grit of heavy music. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Tori Amos , Nightwish , and Katatonia , the band crafts songs that are both crushing and cathartic.

Following their 2022 self-titled demo and their debut EP Requiem in 2023, the band continued evolving with the addition of guitarist Daniel Williams in late 2023. Their 2024 standalone single, “Soul Killer,” signaled a sharp step forward in both production and direction. In January 2025, guitarist Garrett Carroll joined the lineup, and shortly thereafter, Aaron Bedford stepped in on drums to complete the band’s full formation for live performances.

Produced by Danny Meyer (also handling mixing and mastering), with co-production and recording engineering by Chase Baldwin , The Twilight Affliction stands as the band’s most cohesive and emotionally resonant work to date. The release is a testament to the band’s growing sonic identity—moody, orchestral, and unapologetically vulnerable.

“This EP is a journey through the darker corners of the human experience—loss, disillusionment, resilience,” says Baldwin. “It’s not just about grief or despair; it’s about finding clarity in the twilight, even when the light fades.”

The Twilight Affliction will be released independently and available on all major streaming platforms June 30, 2025. Fans of emotionally driven, cinematic metal will not want to miss this.
