History
Deceive was founded in the summer of 2011 in Pomona, California.
After some line-up changes, playing the local Southern California scene for a couple years, and releasing a couple demos, Deceive released their first EP "Arrival of the Dark Masters" in 2014.
This lead the young Deceive to reaching a much wider audience and enabled the band to consistently play all over the western US, including California, Oregon, Arizona, and Nevada.
Eventually however, Deceive went on a long hiatus after playing the first ever California Death Fest in 2015, and it seemed to everyone like it was over...
But as the decade turned over, and we entered the 2020's; a new era for Deceive began.
Deceive was brought back to life secretly and the writing process began. In 2022 the band released their latest release "Dwelling", thrusting them back into the death metal scene once more, ready to bring forth the relentless conquest.
