DEVILOOF is gearing up for a new digital single titled “Everything is all lies” on October 20.
In this upcoming single, vocalist Keisuke, driven by frustration with the proliferation of unreliable self-help books and information in the world, imparts a powerful message: “Don’t succumb to influence and live with your own thoughts!”.
The single’s artwork is designed by illustrator Nottsuo, featuring a creature inspired by the fictional character “Nyarlathotep”, a deity known for manipulating humans toward destruction and chaos in the Cthulhu Mythos. You might have come across Nottsuo’s work before from the popular trading card game Duel Masters.
DEVILOOF’s unique sound perfectly complements the worldview expressed by the illustration, promising to captivate audiences once again.
