Riding on the recent success of having two more songs featured in the acclaimed HBO/DC series Peacemaker, the Scandinavian menace known as THE CRUEL INTENTIONS are back in full force launching a new single together with a hard-hitting music video.

Today, the band releases “Beating in My Chest,” a high-octane burst of Sunset Strip swagger that digs into the heart of Lizzy DeVine’s years in Los Angeles.

The track mixes nostalgia, grit and melodic sleaze-rock energy into one roaring anthem, an electrified postcard from a time filled with wild nights, big ambitions and zero regrets.

“‘Beating In My Chest’ channels the rush of my L.A. years, a roaring mix of nostalgia, grit and heart straight from the Sunset Strip. It’s basically my love letter to L.A.,the nights, the chaos, the dreams. That city still runs in my veins, no matter how far I go,” says DeVine.

Fueled by racing riffs, sharp hooks and the band’s signature blend of melodic hard rock and modern sleaze, “Beating In My Chest” lands as a raw and irresistibly catchy modern-rock anthem. At the same time, they’re releasing a new music video directed by Max Ljungberg, adding even more edge and attitude to the track. Together, this release strengthens their status as one of the most relentless forces in today’s rock scene.

With two critically acclaimed albums on Indie Recordings and millions of global streams, the band has already carved out a solid international presence. Their profile rose even higher with a total of five songs featured in HBO/DC’s Peacemaker, accompanied by praise from director and DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn. Building on that momentum, the Oslo-based Swedish/Norwegian outfit continues to grow their reach while staying true to their raw, adrenaline-fueled roots.
