The video was filmed at Tiger Lab Studios and was directed by Ron Thunderwood, who stated “I feel really lucky to have worked on this- it’s been the coolest challenge I’ve met as a director… mixing practical and CG effects, we really got to create another world.”
In the summer of 2014 Chicago native Dave Naruszewicz was looking to work on a
new project following the disbandment of his former group Heart Set-Self Destruct.
After years of touring with such bands as Filter, Hell Yeah, and Volbeat (to name a few)
he realized it was time for change. Dave decided to reach out to longtime friend and
drummer Russell Ray (formerly of Old Fashioned Beatdown).
Dave began flying to Los Angeles from Chicago twice a month to build something new,
original, and undeniable. Russ then reached out to Shawn Patterson (former guitarist
for Old Fashioned Beatdown). Shawn was the perfect fit, and the three began sending
demos to each other that would become the foundation of VYCES. After a few writing
sessions, they decided to go into the studio with Augustus Cryns (producer of Stitched
Up Heart, XO Stereo, The Dead Rabbits, and Westfield Massacre), and also featured
Mark James Klepaski (Formerly of Breaking Benjamin, and Lifer) on bass. After a year
of writing and recording the band has finished 22 songs. VYCES has sonically created
a solid blend of Active Rock and Metal. Dave describes the soul of the songs through
his lyrics as exploring the darker side of human emotion and behavior. “It’s something
everyone can relate to because everyone has experienced some form of hurt, betrayal,
weakness, hate, addiction, and/or lack of acceptance” says singer Naruszewicz. “It’s
also the fuel that drives us to become stronger, get better, and overcome the flaws
we’ve built in our minds.”
In October 2016 VYCES released their debut EP “DEVILS” and released a music video
for the single “DEVIL.” The band also co-headlined THE HELLRZZR TOUR in October
and November which trekked across the U.S performing in 29 cities in 33 days.
