Hot on the success of Right Side Of Wrong, Dead World Leaders were ready to release their 4th, and what was to be final, single. Right from the off there was an undeniable energy about this single. Created in the midst of polictical scandal and increasingly evident government corruption, House Of Frauds eloquently captured the mood of a nation and the dark skies overhead. More than a single, it was a statement.
I was again approached to create the follow up artwork and I knew exactly where I wanted to take it. Early in the process I was invited to the world famous 2Fly Studios in Sheffield where the band was recording with legendary producer, Alan Smyth. House Of Frauds was clearly going to be an important track and the energy from those sessions was incredible, spawning two further tracks (The Question and A Life More Ordinary) to round out the release.
Capturing a similar style to previous release Right Side Of Wrong but with a more layered approach, House Of Frauds is an original piece of artwork that reflects the mood of the title track and hopefully provides a bold statement on the state of the scandal laced world we live in. The politician/banker/businessman (choose depending on who is currently screwing you over) is wearing a sinister looking balaclava, the message is simple; those we are meant to put our trust in are also the ones doing the taking.
House Of Frauds is available from iTunes.
