Setting the tone with drum riff and a bold electric guitar hook, The Congregation opens their song Lie To Me with the passionate and subversive lyrics, “Open the gates of your Eden, you’re sent from heaven above, we’re just a couple of heathens knelt at the altar of love…”
The song expands into an intricate classic rock soundscape with elements of alternative and rock and roll, delivering the story of a vibrant love song and “the depraved things we will do to keep it”.
Love is the most powerful energy, and we appreciate the alternative romantic way that The Congregation brings the concept to life on Lie To Me, with lyrics including “I’m just addicted to danger, give me the fix that I need…”
Lie To Me also comes with a cinematic video with a cerebral narrative, out of this world performances and visuals that really amplify the experience of the song.
The Congregation is led by JUNO Award winner Clayton Bellamy and Lie To Me marks the follow up to their first top 20 single Soundtrack to the End of the World.
The congregation is a rock n roll tent revival – the preacher man leads the way to musical salvation. The brain child of Clayton Bellamy, a multi-award winning songwriter whose numerous projects have sold over half a million copies worldwide, The Congregation is the next step in his evolution.
Co-produced by multi-award winner Dan Davidson and HMA winner Dan Weller (Enter Shikari, Sikth) and mixed by Grammy winner Adrian Bushby (Foo Fighters, Muse, This Is A Sermon), Lie To Me is unlike anything you’ve heard before, and it is clear that The Congregation are creating a universe of their own.
We have added Lie To Me to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we continue to stream the wider discography of The Congregation including Soundtrack to the End of the World.
