Biography

Hailing from Northeast Pennsylvania’s DIY scene that birthed The Menzingers, Tigers Jaw and Title Fight; Esta Coda joins their crew with a high-caliber EP. King Bitter was recorded at the legendary Studio 4, produced by Grammy-nominated producer Will Yip (Quicksand, Circa Survive, The Bouncing Souls) and was released on December 7th via Memory Music. Brooklyn Vegan unveiled the track “Breathe” and boasted, “punk grit and a driving backbone, but it’s really more of a sweet-sounding, melodic alternative rock song – the kind you could imagine hearing on the radio in 1996.” Substream Magazine raved about the title track, “walks the line of punk and alternative rock masterfully.” From misunderstanding depression (“Breathe”) to not being happy with how we’ve changed as people or decisions we’ve made (“Something New”) to cynicism growing in proportion with age and falling victim to nostalgia (“King Bitter”) to dwindling confidence as we experience setbacks in life (“On My Own”) – King Bitter shares authentic and genuine experiences to help others feel understood for the length of a song.
