Dreamy, moody, complex, and punishing: all words which one could use to describe “Holomovement,” the first released song from The Contortionist’s upcoming album, Intrinsic. You’ll need to listen for mere moments to hear that the band has made some major creative strides on their sophomore offering; they’re quickly developing a reputation for being one of the premiere up-and-coming prog metal acts on the scene today, and with good reason. Check out “Holomovement” in the lyric video below — we’re confident you’re gonna dig it!

Intrinsic comes out July 17 on eOne/Good Fight Music. Pre-order it here. MetalSucks will be presenting the band’s North American headlining tour in support of the album, which begins in July. Support will come from Jeff Loomis, Chimp Spanner (making their North American tour debut!), and 7 Horns 7 Eyes. Get dates here.
