Self Deception (Sweden)

Most "Infos" found on Spirit of Metal

This time it's not an approved action, but I felt it was important to post about them even though bands already have a certain status. And since I really enjoy listening to their songs at the moment, they're first in line.

Or more at least i try. My writing Skills are hopefully being approved with this. Even though they are not good to begin with. 👀

Since I am writing this as a fan of the band, I am sure I am unconsciously leaving out things that are actually important, so please feel free to point them out to me.

I was first introduced to Self Deception on Spotify with their song PSYCHO. From then on, things got a little out of hand. I had always been determined to listen to the accompanying Album, You Are Only As Sick As Your Secrets. After Fight Fire with Gasoline was also recommended to me, it was clear that they had found a new fan.
As many people know, I'm actually more into symphonic metal, speed metal, power metal, and many other genres. That leaves a lot of genres and subgenres behind, including alternative metal.

In this case, the guys from Sweden convinced me to think outside the box. With the power they put into their music and embody, you can't help but like them.

I would encourage anyone who likes alternative metal/rock to give them a listen. It doesn't have to start the way it did for me with PSYCHO or Fight Fire with Gasoline, but simply giving them a chance is support enough. Maybe one or two people from the community will be drawn into their musical world.

Other videos you can watch: Time's Up (the latest), One of Us, or HYSTERIA.

The band is still active and released the album Destroy the Art in October 2024. It is in no way inferior to its predecessor, and the band's continued development is also evident on the current album, which will be released in May and is definitely worth listening to. It will be called One of Us and is scheduled for release on May 15, 2026, so make a note of it.

As many times as before, I discovered them on Spotify and had to admit that their music was moving for me. Yes, I know that describing Progressive Death Metal/Grindcore as such is difficult, but it helped me in some Moments. To reiterate what Metal Archives has in store: The band name is an abbreviation of "The Obliteration of Humanity". !T.O.O.H.! disbanded shortly after putting the finishing touches on the album Order and Punishment due to financial...

The Line-Up is as such Corné Marais (Guitars) Chris Coetzee (Guitars) Floyd Brollo (V...
