The Constellations Get Kicked Off Youtube For Posting Bacchanalian Video For "Afterparty"
Raucous Highlight of New Album "DO IT FOR FREE" Gets The NC 17 Treatment
HITS, VH1, VEVO and Others Pick Up The Slack
SANTA MONICA, Calif., July 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Constellations, astute purveyors of Atlanta's musical underbelly, may have evolved into a stellar, edgy, soulful groove band, but they haven't lost their cocky ,thrill-seeking edge as evidenced by their fresh new video for the song "Afterparty" (taken from their new album "DO IT FOR FREE"), which was immediately deleted from Youtube for "inappropriate content." In the spirit of that delicious raucous party jam, the band with the help of director/videographer/editor Video Rahim, used all of their horned up creative juices to produce the ultimate end-of –the –world bacchanalian primal last gasp sextravaganza. The NC 17 treatment is your basic society gone off the rails prior to imminent asteroid impact script jam packed with scenes of bouncing full frontal debauchery, coke fueled personality crises, powder covered iPads, creaking couches, news anchor geek sex, requisite fallen priest, crimson Beelzebub sex harems, a frisky Elijah Jones and so much more, quickly cut to dizzyingly effective effect. In the spirit of 2012 apocalypse theories, the Constellations will be spreading the "Afterparty" love continuously to the end. Catch it now on the link below!

Recently signed with 429 Records the Constellations released "DO IT FOR FREE"—their debut album for 429 and the follow up to their acclaimed debut "Southern Gothic." Led by Elijah Jones, and featuring Wes Hoffman (bass), Travis Phillips (guitar), James Gordon (keyboards) and Shane Hoffman (drums)—the band reinforce their reputation for hard swinging alt beats but have honed their musical outlook concentrating on muscular grooves and a more soulful melodicism. Produced by Andy Rose, the swirling funk anchored by the B3 and Fender Rhodes Organ provides the perfect backdrop for the band's trademark gritty songwriting. Known for their live show, the band will perform on the entire Warped Tour this summer.
