Today, UK metal band EMPLOYED TO SERVE share an official music video for “Treachery,” taken from their latest full-length, ‘Fallen Star,’ out now via Spinefarm. In addition, the band will be touring Europe starting late September, with most dates supporting the legendary Killswitch Engage.
About the track, Justine Jones comments: “As soon as we wrote this song, we always knew it was going to be the opener. Just straight out of the gate riffs, and Sammy was also able to do his Tom Araya impersonation. This track is about people in your life letting themselves down, and by proxy letting those close to them down as well.”
“For the video, we wanted to go for a more stripped-back performance video to portray the raw energy of the song.” Check out the music video for “Treachery,” directed by Murry Deaves, HERE
ETS has played every type of big show imaginable, from Bloodstock through to Glastonbury in the UK and Hellfest, Wacken, and Roskilde across Europe. On their previous album, ‘Conquering,’ they pulverized arenas all over the UK and Europe in support of metal behemoths Gojira.
For the remainder of 2025, EMPLOYED TO SERVE will be touring Europe, mostly in support of Killswitch Engage. See the full list of dates below.

Since meeting in their teens on the outskirts of London, vocalist Justine Jones and guitarist / co-vocalist Sammy Urwin have had their sights fixed on the road ahead. At first, it was all about standing with the local scene bands they admired, but before long, they were forging a path of their own, lifers with a mission, evolving from the feral mathcore of their early EPs to detonating a full-throttle career high with 2021 album, ‘Conquering’.
And now there’s ‘Fallen Star,’ an 11-track tour-de-force that sees the collective EMPLOYED TO SERVE vision refined to an even sharper degree.
Produced and mixed by Lewis Johns, a longstanding presence behind the desk, it features a number of special guests, including Killswitch Engage’s Jesse Leach on “Whose Side Are You On?,” Lorna Shore’s Will Ramos on “Atonement,” and Svalbard’s Serena Cherry on “Last Laugh”.
Kerrang! called the band’s fifth studio album “perfect” and “heroic,” whilst Metal Hammer insists that if ‘Fallen Star’ doesn’t make them “absolutely massive” then “God is dead and Satan is sleeping.”
