Hacktivist have made their collaboration with Jamie Graham available to stream.
The Heart Of A Coward frontman guests on a new version of Hacktivist’s single Deceive And Defy, the original of which was released in 2014.
The updated version will appear on the band’s debut album Outside The Box, due out on March 4 via UNFD and Rise Records.
Vocalist Ben Marvin says: “This song is about the illusion of success in mainstream music – how people can be loved one day then hated the next.
“There’s nothing wrong with starting from the bottom and working to where you want to be. You’re way more likely to last longer at the top and be remembered if you don’t sell yourself out.”
Guitarist Timfy James adds: “Deceive And Defy for me is an all-round impression of us as a band and what we stand for. You can’t just buy your way into music – it takes blood, sweat and tears – something we know all about.”
Hacktivist are on tour from later this month.
