Victims of Deception is the second album by the US thrash metal band Heathen released in 1991 by Roadrunner Records. It was re-issued by Metal Mind Productions in 2006 as a digipak in a limited amount of 2000 numbered copies.
This album is considerably more technical and progressive than its predecessor. It features many tempo changes, complex song structures, odd time signatures, longer song lengths, and more frequent guitar solos. It is considered among the most technical thrash albums ever, and part of the so called "progressive thrash" movement of the late 80's, early 90's (other pivotal albums in this era (chronologically) included Toxik's Think This, Metallica's …And Justice for All, Watchtower's Control and Resistance, Megadeth's Rust in Peace, Dark Angel's Time Does Not Heal, and Coroner's Mental Vortex).
The band did not have a bass player at the time this album was recorded. The bass tracks on this album were played by Blind Illusion guitarist/frontman Marc Biedermann. The band had many bassists on this albums supporting tour.
