Tyler Bryant & the Shakedown have officially announced Truth and Lies as the title of their third album, which arrives June 28 on Spikefarm Records. The bluesy rockers already teased the record with "Onto the Next" single and now they've debuted a music video for album opener "Shock and Awe."

The song is a hard-digging, blues-addled stomper the steams in the heat with slow-paced video cuts showing the band and a plague doctor / vulture type character officiating a sinister wedding.

"When we first chose the cover art for the record, I loved listening to the album while staring at that image," commented Tyler Bryant. "It would set off my imagination and uncover new layers in each song. For the 'Shock and Awe' video, we decided to take it one step further and re-create the scenario that is scene on the cover of 'Truth & Lies.' With the snakes and the glitter, I think this rock 'n' roll wedding party is visual candy for the imagination."
