Human Impact release new music video for ‘Contact’

HUMAN IMPACT have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Contact, is the brand new standalone single from the New York-based noise rock band and follows on from the release of their self-titled debut album which was released last month. The new music video was first premiered via Louder Sound.

An eerie premonition, the new song predicts the new reality we all currently inhabit. In anticipation of this release, and as an act of connection in this time of isolation, the band put a call out to fans across the globe for video footage to use in the video for Contact showing how the Coronavirus has affected all our daily lives and environment. Asking the question: What does this new reality look like for you?

As residents of North America’s hardest hit city, the band has earmarked their proceeds from the song to be donated to the NYC COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund.

Speaking about the music and video, the band says, “we’d like to write songs about humankind living in harmony and balance with the world, about governments and corporations being of and for the people. But those songs would be narcotic lullabies spitting in the wind of what’s real. We wish this song were wrong. Contact was written, recorded and mixed just before the global COVID-19 pandemic hit. Originally written as a response to a feeling of international vulnerability to the spread of disease via air travel, the song’s lyrics proved to be an uneasy and uncanny prediction, foreshadowing our current quarantined reality.”
