Pennsylvania metal outfit The Last Ten Seconds Of Life are pleased to unleash their video for their latest single, "Make It To Heaven," featuring David Simonich of Signs Of The Swarm. The track comes by way of the band’s forthcoming new full-length, "The Dead Ones," set for release on April 17th via Metal Blade Records.

A particular kind of thrill arises in watching a performer step back into songs that already carry a little damage in their bones and then give them a second life under hot lights and hard focus. That is the charge running through Rosa Damask’s new live performance video in conjunction with her latest offering, Adore You. Filmed by Andrii Kaplia, who also captured the Berlin artist’s appearance at Morphine Raum last year, the video pulls together four songs from the album; the session feels less like a promotional lap than a fresh incision into material that was already cut close to the bone.

Adore You, out now via Downwards Records, introduced Rosa Damask as a figure working in tension: cool surfaces, private panic, desire gone strange in the room where it was once supposed to feel safe. The record moves with a severe kind of sensuality, built from electronic minimalism, lean post-punk muscle, and a voice that could turn from intimate to severe in the space of a line. The songs circle detachment, the slow spoil of closeness, the embarrassing silence that arrives when affection starts to rot from the inside. On record, that atmosphere was suffocating in the best possible way. Live, it gets meaner, sharper, more alive to risk.

Rosa Damask stands in the middle of that machinery, sounding both composed and on the verge of saying something that should have stayed unsaid. There is real voltage in that push and pull. These songs are no longer sealed in the private chamber where they began; they are out in public now, staring back. That public reach is already widening: Bored (included here) was featured in the Versace FW25 runway show in Milan, which makes perfect sense: it carries the kind of cool damage fashion loves to borrow, though the song itself has more bite than mere ornament could ever hold. In this new performance, that edge comes through with even more force.

So consider this video both document and signal flare. It catches Rosa Damask deepening the world of Adore You while pointing toward whatever comes next. With a new album currently being finalized for release later this year, this performance suggests an artist still pushing further into her own beautifully bruised terrain, still finding fresh ways to turn distance, desire, and dread into something immediate enough to leave a mark.

Songs featured in the video:
1 Bored
2 Yesterday
3 It’s Over

Nothing makes, sense tonight
Promises burned, I want to cry
As reality gripes tight, I cower and crawl
I give into this fading sunlight 

There is something gloriously excessive about setting a plea so raw and naked against a landscape built for industry, and DECEITS understand that kind of tension better than most. Please, Wake Up lands with the force of private pain made public, not in some grandstanding way, but in the old pop sense, where a bruised heart gets dressed in rhythm, melody, and enough sky to make the whole thing feel mythic for four minutes. The video takes that charge and stretches it across the Palm Springs wind corridor, where the band performs beneath giant turbines that turn with the indifference of time itself. What could have played as mere mood instead comes across like a dispatch from the edge of endurance, where memory, desire, and sheer motion keep a person from sinking cleanly into the sand.

The music moves with a real sense of body. Kevin Moreno and Francisco Saenz understand that rhythm can carry sorrow without flattening it into a pose, so the bass steps forward with purpose, the drums keep that hips-and-heart balance, and the guitars arrive clean, bright, and slightly remote, like a memory still dressed in its Sunday clothes. The keyboards hang over it all with a faint glow, never crowding the frame, never overexplaining the pain. This band has clearly spent time spinning The Cure, New Order, The Chameleons, Motorama, and Caifanes, but what matters here is the way those affinities get absorbed into lived experience, into Los Angeles blood and backyard weather and the deep pull of music that learned early on how to dance while carrying hurt in its chest.

Shot in the windy valley of Palm Springs, the video makes a strong visual argument for the song’s scale. Windmills tower over the band like mute saints of modern ruin, generating power for some distant city while DECEITS play out in the open, small against the machinery, stubborn against the emptiness. It is a strong image, because it leaves room for thought. You look at those giant blades turning and think of time, industry, memory, the whole grinding business of being left behind while the world keeps producing energy for someone else’s life.

Directed and filmed by Eddie and Teresa of Shuttervisual_, the clip gives the song exactly the kind of visual frame it needs: wide, weather-beaten, and touched by longing without sinking into theatrical excess. Moreno’s vocal carries that measured, wounded quality straight through the screen, and by the time the song opens up into its final rise, you feel less like you’ve watched a performance than stumbled into a private reckoning staged under a pitiless sky. DECEITS have made something lean, beautiful, and bruised here, and it sticks to the ribs.

Shortly after announcing their fifteenth studio album, Architects Of A New Weave, set for release on June 5, 2026 via Napalm Records, Evergrey unveils their new single and manifest of beautiful darkness, “Architects Of The New Weave”, alongside a visually-striking animated video. Once again, Gothenburg’s finest export proves its unmatched ability to craft timeless melodies, powerful riffs, and gripping lyrics, while continuing to surprise their devoted fans with an innovative approach, even after more than 30 years of existence.

Evergrey’s new full-length, Architects Of A New Weave, will be released just days before the band takes the stage as special guest to the undisputed kings of heavy metal, Iron Maiden, for two shows on their Run For Your Lives World Tour. This is the wake-up call you didn’t know you needed: A plunge into thinning air, burning worlds, and lingering guilt—only to break free with fierce momentum. The album refuses to wallow. It ascends—fast, heavy, and cinematic. But it refuses to hide in the dark. It rises: Quick, fierce, and utterly transformative.

Tom Englund comments about the title track: “‘Architects Of The New Weave’ – It’s a blistering first single from our 15th studio album, Architects Of A New Weave, (or the second ferocious strike if you’re counting our standalone powerhouse “Oxygen!” as its own beast)! I am not afraid to claim this is a no-brainer, sing-along friendly, straight-up great metal song! It came ignited from Rikard Zander‘s killer keyboard riff, which we hammered into a short, but massive headbanger! When crafting that chorus keyboard line, ‘Rainbow In The Dark’ was blasting in my head – pure epic inspiration, giving it that timeless, fist-pumping edge. There are dual guitar solos, trading fire in classic old-school style, melodic and memorable. We can’t wait to let this rip live! I’m torn on music videos sometimes – I adore them as an art form, but too often the visuals steal focus from the music itself.”

Tom Englund comments about the animation video: “We went bold: a stunning, immersive introduction to Mattias Norén‘s absolute magnum opus of album artwork. Every tiny, intricate detail comes alive on screen, with the track thundering as the perfect dark soundtrack. – It’s hypnotic, lets the art breathe, and pulls you deeper into our world – We could’ve chosen any track from the album as the lead, but this one’s the perfect explosive opener to our new era of beautiful darkness. I’ve never been more fired up. Crank it loud, join the weave, and let’s build something unstoppable together.”

Dive into Architects Of A New Weave’s standout tracks like “The World is on Fire”, “Leaving The Emptiness”, “Heaven”, and “The Prophecy”, and the breathtaking title anthem “Architects Of The New Weave”. Their choruses break through like sunlight piercing storm clouds: enormous, cinematic melodies that pull you upward, riffs with genuine weight and bite, and vocals dripping with raw, unflinching truth. In one breath, you’re shouldering buried longing; in the next, you’re weightless, fearless, endless. Scars transform into badges of survival, fractures fuel reinvention. In the second half of the album, fellow Gothenburg icon Mikael Stanne (Dark Tranquillity, The Halo Effect, Grand Cadaver, Cemetery Skyline) joins Tom S. Englund in vocal duties for “A Burning Flame”, the voices of the two scene legends intertwined compellingly. Architects Of A New Weave was produced by Tom S. Englund and Vikram Shankar, with a stellar mix by Adam “Nolly” Getgood.

Among other exclusive formats, Architects Of A New Weave comes with a bonus album, containing bonus tracks “Heights” and “One Heart”, as well as an album mix of the previously released standalone single “Oxygen!” (2025). Additionally, it features a demo version of “Longing”, instrumental tracks of “Leaving The Emptiness”, both new songs, as well as a live version of “Falling From The Sun”, the hit single off the previous record, Theories of Emptiness (2024) and continuation of “Ominous” off of A Heartless Portrait (The Orphean Testament) (2022).
