Description

"Black Arcs Rising" is the kind of album that sounds as good on the dance floor of a rock club as it does on a rainy day at home.

'Black Arcs Rising' is the third studio album by Swedish rock trio Statues. Recorded at Svenska grammofonstudion in Gothenburg, this 12 track full-length release brings back the imperishable soundscapes of 90's alternative rock while showcasing Statues' melodic, direct, and intense approach to songwriting. 'Black Arcs Rising' is produced and mixed by Christian Ramirez who also adds additional guitar on the tracks 'Perfect Storm', 'Sardonic Grin', and 'Eyes in the Sky', and mastered by Magnus Lindberg. The album features guest vocals by Per Stålberg on 'Phantasm', 'Dead of Summer', and 'Hiding in a Hole', and art direction by Joel Dunkels. As with Statues 2020 album 'Holocene', 'Black Arcs Rising' is released by Swedish independent label Lövely Records.

The band comments:
The title warns of worse times. Black Arcs can be seen in a chart, but it can also mean that there are black arcs rising from the ground that warn of worse times. Our texts are often prophetic by accident. The last record, Holocene, had a song called Lockdown and then came the pandemic. The lyrics are as usual of the darker kind, but there is also a kind of black humor in the absurdity described. If you do it wrong, things will go to hell and therefore it must be warned about the madness that exists. It may already be too late to save the world as the doomsday clock is close to midnight, but by pointing to the absurdities of environmental destruction, consumerism, capitalism, the annexation of other countries and an unwillingness to change behavior, we are doing what we can to encourage change.
