The band recently shot a new music video, for the new single 'Conversion', with veteran director Dale "Rage" Resteghini.

"Conversion is one of my favorite songs on the record because its about shedding old skin & becoming a whole another being. I'm really stoked that its the first video off our new record." says Alexis Brown.
