Statues On Fire
STATUES ON FIRE are a Brazilian punk rock band like no other. With a sound that harks back to the heyday of The Clash and adds a modern twist that sets them apart from their contemporaries. Formed in São Paulo in 2013, this four-piece outfit is the brainchild of frontman André Alves, whose passion for high-energy, politically charged punk music is palpable in every riff and lyric.
Their debut album, "Phoenix," released in 2014, was a raw and powerful statement of intent, showcasing their knack for catchy hooks and anthemic choruses. Tracks like "All About Me" and "Draw the Line" are instant classics, sure to get your blood pumping and your fists in the air.
But it was their follow-up, "No Tomorrow," released in 2017, that solidified their reputation as one of the most exciting bands in the punk rock scene. Packed with blistering guitar solos, thunderous drumming, and Alves' inimitable vocals, this album is a masterclass in punk rock songwriting.
Their live shows are a sight to behold, with Alves commanding the stage like a true rock god and the rest of the band providing the perfect backdrop of noise and chaos. If you ever get the chance to see them in action, don't miss it – you'll be talking about it for weeks.
All in all, STATUES ON FIRE are a force to be reckoned with in the world of punk rock. With their infectious energy and undeniable talent, they are sure to be making waves for years to come. So do yourself a favour and give them a listen – you won't regret it.
