PRESS RELEASE FROM CONCEPTION SOUND FACTORY

CONCEPTION RELEASE NEW SINGLE ‘A VIRTUAL LOVESTORY (LIVE)’

Norwegian hard rockers Conception release brand new single ‘A Virtual Lovestory (live)’ on December 10th. It is a live recording of the classic from their 1997 album Flow, recorded at their hometown gig in Gjøvik back in 2019, marking the very first time any version of this song has been made available on digital platforms. It also features on the forthcoming “State of Deception – deluxe edition” album.

Vocalist Roy Khan explained “The lyrics were inspired by an article I read about AI back in the 90s. I found it fascinating, frightening and somewhat sad at the same time, and yet it went on to become more relevant than I could ever have imagined. The internet is a fantastically paradoxical thing that both connects and separates…”

As guitarist Tore Østby relays, it was an obvious selection to record and release: “Personally, it’s one of my favorite tracks from the Flow album, with groove, atmosphere, and challenging harmonies. It’s always a thrill to perform live, so one we just had to share.”

The forthcoming deluxe edition of “State of Deception” includes not just the original album content, but also a series of new live and studio recordings, previously unreleased songs and instrumental versions of the original album and is due in early 2022.
