The three brothers of the earth-scorching Pontiak have a new record called Echo Ono due out on Feb. 21. This is your second taste. “Royal Colors” is a brooding, doomy, feedback-scarred climb – and it’s got an equally unsettling video to go with it. Why is it creepy? Well, let’s just say there’s an uncomfortably-long sequence of a ghoulish, vaguely Gollum-esque figure staring directly into a camera. You don’t need a huge budget to be memorable, and Pontiak pretty much nail it here. Watch below.
