“Phantom :: Phoenix“, das dritte Studiowerk der Aggro-Progger STELLAR CIRCUITS ist gestern erschienen und mit ihm auch das Video zur modernen, Alternative angehauchten Prog Nummer `Elegant Illusion`, bei dem die sonst oft hörbare Wut völig außen vor bleibt.
STELLAR CIRCUITS Sänger Benny Blue sagt über die neue Scheibe:
“When we were writing this record, one of the things that kept coming up was the idea of death and rebirth through fire. This idea of killing off the old and dead parts of ourselves in order to give birth to something new and maybe even a truer version of who we all are. Every time we write an album, we go into the process with the idea of getting uncomfortable and exposing a more vulnerable part of ourselves. There also seems to be a constant theme of dealing with loss when we’re in the middle of writing. Everybody went through different periods of loss and grief during this process and I think that it shows through in the subject matter and the sounds that came out of it. We always want to push ourselves to a new place and build on the foundation that we’ve created over the last few years of being in this band. I think that we’ve been able to achieve that with Phantom :: Phoenix. It’s a representation of that cycle and I hope it can act as a catalyst for growth to those who listen.”
