Devilskin
release their new single, the grand and majestic Fade, from the
album We Rise.
Following
the empowerment and self-belief of the singles Start A
Revolution and the introspective Never See The Light,
sonically softer than its predecessors, Fade is just as relevant and just
as powerful.
Fade was
one of the first songs they wrote together as a band and they believe “its
genesis really propelled Devilskin onto bigger and better things.”
Shot
on a cold wooded beach out of Auckland, Devilskin wanted the beauty of nature as
a backdrop to capture all the elements of the song, “beauty, mystique, power,
passion and hurt.” The stark colour grading is crucial and highlights the mood
and intensity of Fade.

Fade along
with Never See The
Light and Start A Revolution are taken from their debut
album We Rise. The album debuted at #1 in New Zealand and became the
first album since 2010 by a domestic rock band to achieve Platinum status, while
the critics have lauded its UK release.
We
Rise, has now been in the NZ Albums chart for 100 weeks while the videos
for We Rise, have amassed over in excess of 1.82 million views on
YouTube.
The
four piece Devilskin hail from Hamilton, New Zealand and comprise of the
mesmerizing Jennie Skulander on vocals, the red bearded ‘evil twins’ Nail and
Paul Martin on guitars and Nic Martin on drums. Devilskin have already earned a
formidable reputation by earnestly demonstrating commitment to unpretentious
musical values: writing songs that have depth and passion, and a relentless
touring schedule. In 2015 Devilskin have supported Mötley Crüe, Slash and Alice
Cooper in New Zealand. Their tactical instrumental attack is balanced by the
seductive Jennie Skulander and her incredible voice that sweeps from whisper to
roar, rips with power, drips with melody and captivates with sincerity.
Devilskin’s
irresistible We Rise is at times visceral, urgent and magniloquent but is
also tempered with tenderness, empathy, love and bare souls. “ ‘We Rise’ is a
roller coaster of emotions and moods, just like life” enthuses Paul Martin
“there’s definitely power and there’s definitely passion. The songs are very
real, and brutally honest, just like our live show.”
Musically
twisted and possessed We Rise combines gorgeous melodies of heavy,
bombastic rifts, with streamlined hard rock anthems aimed squarely at the arena
circuit, no one else does it better right now.
Devilskin
are currently mixing their
new album and plan to return to the UK and Europe early 2017.
