♱ “Too romantic for the punks, too fierce for the goths. We play passionate post-punk” ♱ Co-founded by longtime best friends Kevin “Puppy” Moreno (Vocals, Instruments) & Francisco Saenz (Drums, Percussions) in late 2021 , Los Angeles’s DECEITS are putting the passion back in post-punk through a modern Chicano lens. The group have garnered a cult-like following in the goth/alternative underground through their catchy melancholic soundscapes and energetic live performances. Not afraid to stand out, DECEITS took it upon themselves to play post-punk that wasn’t restricted to just being cold and monotone, but also filled with the vibrant energy and colorful rhythms found in the Spanish language music they were surrounded with growing up. After a steady release of well received singles, DECEITS released their debut studio album “If There’s No Heaven…” in November of 2023 independently. Powered by modern de facto post-punk goth anthems like “Drowning In An Empty Sea” and “Mi Amor, Mi Vampira”, the album would be well received, leading the band to tour across the U.S., headline their own show at the prestigious El Rey Theater and being invited to perform at 2025's Cruel World Festival. After a string of sold out headline and support shows with acts such as She Wants Revenge to close out 2025, the band is scheduled to make their tour debuts in Europe and Mexico in early 2026.
