VICTIMOFDECEPTION (written as Victim of Deception before 2021) is a deathcore band from Tokyo, Japan. The band currently consists of vocalist Makito, guitarists Junpei (η΄εΉ³) and morby (γγΌγ³γ), bassist Chappy (γ‘γγ£γ΄γΌ) and drummer kumao (ηι). The band's inception dates back to 2013, when it was formed under the name Kenshitai (ι¨γγγ) by Junpei, Chappy, Kumao and two unnamed members. Originally, Chappy and the previous vocalist wanted to form a Bullet For My Valentine cover band. Then two members left and vocalist Daichi Shimoyama and guitarist Morby joined. Daichi was previously vocalist and guitarist in a technical death metal band, and after he joined, their musican direction changed from metalcore to deathcore. In their early days before releasing their debut demo, they would create songs the day before the live performance, rehearse on the day of the show, and perform like that. Junpei has said that before the demo, the band was in such disarray that someone was almost quitting. After their demo, they started taking the band more seriously. They released their debut free demo "Anti Creed" in April 2014. Despite being an entirely unknown band at the time, they quickly distributed 1000 demo copies, bringing back life to the Japanese deathcore scene that was tapering off. This bold move facilitated the band's expansion beyond Tokyo, captivating audiences in cities like Nagoya, Osaka, and Sendai. Their EP "The Uprising Desolation" was released on October 14, 2015.
