Self Deception Release Video For New Single "THE WEDDING"

Sweden's modern metal frontrunners SELF DECEPTION unveil the new single "THE WEDDING" ahead of the upcoming Napalm Records debut album One Of Us, out on May 15. This energetic modern rock anthem features a particularly dark and twisted storyline, delivered through the powerful mix of clean vocals and aggressive screams, accompanied by the heavy combination of dynamic, groovy beats and crushing riffs. The band continues to raise the bar for contemporary rock with their seventh studio album!
"THE WEDDING" came into life while the band spent two weeks in Spain for writing sessions, and in the middle of it, drummer Erik Ingels Graham got married. "All of our families came along, and it turned into this beautiful mix of celebration and creativity. On the very night of the wedding, we ended up writing 'THE WEDDING' - but instead of capturing that fantastic day, we twisted it into a dark, dystopian story about a couple who secretly want to kill each other," comments SELF DECEPTION vocalist Andreas Clark.
Known for their fiery fusion of anthemic modern metal and powerful melodic rock, SELF DECEPTION have shared stages with the likes of Electric Callboy, Danko Jones, and Adept since their 2009 debut, while racking up millions of streams and video views - including their viral 2022 hit "Fight Fire With Gasoline," with tens of millions of streams. Written on the road during the heaviest touring of SELF DECEPTION's career so far, One Of Us is a cohesive album full of character, made for the stage - and the pit!
SELF DECEPTION about One Of Us:

"One Of Us is our new album, inspired by life on the road and the energy of the live stage. Touring so much has put us in a kind of 'live bubble,' and that feeling runs through the songwriting. The album revolves around outsidership and the desire to belong. On tour, we meet many lost and lonely people, all seeking a few hours of escape where they can disappear into a rock show. With One Of Us, we want everyone to feel part of something bigger, to feel like one of us."
