Our featured album this week is “If There’s No Heaven…” the debut record from Los Angeles post punk/coldwave/new wave band Deceits.
As the band puts it: If There’s No Heaven… is an album themed in both tragedy and hope. The 8-track record takes inspiration from classic post-punk bands like The Cure, Sad Lovers & Giants, The Chameleons, and The Danse Society. It also includes other musical influences like new wave, dream pop, deathrock, and even 90’s emo/screamo.
Favourite tracks: Drowning In An Empty Sea, Mi Amor, Mi Vampira, Every Promise, To Just Fade Away…
