Conception

Norwegian hard rockers Conception have released their latest album ‘State of Deception’, their first full length offering in over two decades. Following on from 2018’s successful EP release ‘@MyDarkSymphony,’ the album was once again released via their own Conception Sound Factory label, and will be accompanied by a full European tour in 2022. 
 It follows a twenty year interval during which band members Roy Khan, Tore Østby, Ingar Amlien and Arve Heimdal remained friends throughout, and the album release marks the full-circle evolution of the band. ‘State of Deception’ perfectly captures the band’s trademark breadth of progressive sound, from symphonic melodrama to rock riff utopia.
