The Contortionist have released a music video for their spot-on cover song of The Smashing Pumpkins 1995 hit “1979” via Consequence of Sound. Directed by vocalist Michael Lessard, this is the second music video we see from the band’s Our Bones EP released last year. Lessard also directed the music video for the title track “Our Bones” and can be seen below. Vocalist Michael Lessard comments:  

Last summer saw heavy metal warriors MAJESTY release their critically acclaimed, ninth studio album, Legends, via powerhouse label Napalm Records – a metal rollercoaster that delivers pure steel and takes you on a trip into a post-apocalyptic wasteland where mankind fights for a brighter future. Legends bravely continues down the path its predecessor paved and mixes MAJESTY’s trademarks: blistering riffs, soaring guitar solos and anthemic choirs with modern soundscapes and a massive, crystal-clear production. That`s how real legends gotta sound!
