Votive Crown unveils video for “Pandemonium” + plays Pete’s Candy on 08.24

We last wrote about Brooklyn-based psych-soul outfit Votive Crown last year when they played Mercury Lounge. Now the band returns to the blog as we premiere their video for "Pandemonium", a prog-psych single from their upcoming debut LP. The video intertwines shots of the band with scenes of New York City and its people swirling in and out of existence; the sequences are accompanied by the track’s easy drum beat and brooding, swelling guitars, with Melissa Orr’s intense and soulful vocals skillfully navigating the song’s fierce tension and release fluctuations. With the video premiere comes a celebratory live show, which will take place at Pete’s Candy Store in Williamsburg on August 24th. – Will Sisskind
