Speaking on the single and music video release, BLIND EQUATION’s James McHenry comments: „you betrayed the ones you loved is one of the first songs with a strong pop influence that I wrote for the album. I took a lot of influence from Porter Robinson and Jane Remover but wanted to still have the BLIND EQUATION sound present. The end result is a meeting point between our previous releases and DEATH AWAITS.
„Our long time collaborator angel gasm directed and filmed the video at the long abandoned First Estonian Church in rural Wisconsin, back in February. We sent it over to morta sustain for editing and we wanted to keep the VHS vibe of our previous video, never getting better, while focusing on a full band performance and implementing some new aesthetics in the mix and I think it came out great.“
