Contact Light is a two-piece indie rock band formed out of Philadelphia. Blending potent punk elements with a dreamy indie design, the band’s sound is a complex rock system. It is built with energy and transformed by emotion. With their latest single, Burnout, Contact Light delivers a soaring despondency, accentuated by emphatic defiance and smooth melancholia. Listeners of Arcade Fire, My Chemical Romance, and Sonic Youth will enjoy the fiery atmospheres of this band.
The track is a community of punk beats, soaring riffs, dreamy synths, and winking acoustics. They unite at the rapturous vocal juncture, the emotional epicenter. Its voracious expulsion powers the soundscape, leading it to high highs. The strained timber tears through on the wings of hard-hitting beats and effervescing riffs. This momentum is further amplified by spectacular pyro strips, propelling the track over and above.
The band is Joey Lantonio and William Johnston. Having formed in 2020, they have acquired quite the reputation; from playing with some of the biggest names currently emerging out of the Philly scene to being featured in several pop-culture magazines like Plastic Mag, YETI, and Groove, etc.
The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
