Ohio’s breakout metalcore band Convictions has debuted a video today for a brand-new single, ‘Deceptive Heart,’ ahead of the much anticipated release of their 2nd full-length record, “Hope For The Broken,” on June 1st with InVogue Records. Also, fans can pre-order the record on limited edition vinyl today here.
‘Deceptive Heart’ was written for anyone going through a heartbreak. During the writing process, I personally was dealing with episodes of depression around this topic. Rather than let those difficult emotions build and get the best of me I decided to use our music as an outlet. For our band, music is one of the few things that helps get us out of that dark place.” – Mike Falco (vocals).
Convictions’ message of hope in a dark world is the underlying backbone to their new album. The new record follows their previous release “I Will Become,” which was a declaration of the band’s intentions and overarching message of who they are.
“Hope For The Broken” is a response after their faith was tested with bouts of heartbreak, death and betrayal experienced over the last few years. Through the trials and tribulation, they emerge steadfast with their boldest record yet.
Convictions added: “Hope for The Broken is our journey of finding hope through our faith in our most vulnerable states.”
Fans can catch the band in concert on their upcoming tour with Volumes, Upon A Burning Body and The White Noise. Tickets are on sale now at.
