Track by Track: Monuments - In Stasis
Monuments’ new album In Stasis comes out Friday and we asked the band to tell us about each track. Check out their commentary on the album below!
No One Can Teach You
Someone who has power wants only one thing - More power. The bigger they are the harder they fall. No one can teach you to control it - the only lesson is failure.
Lavos
Most of humanity has been wiped out. The last remaining survivors have barricaded themselves away waiting for their inevitable destruction.
Cardinal Red
The blood of us all is on the hands of the elite. Within the thralls of cardinals, no one is innocent. Spilling the blood of those you love, this pain is permanent.
Opiate
Our obsessive desire to make life more meaningful through prescription and illegal drugs.
Collapse
What happens to us when we die? Will the energy go somewhere else, will we be conscious of it in our final moments?
Arch Essence
Will I always feel out of place or I don’t belong and constantly question my abilities? Imposter Syndrome
Somnus
Will I ever get to fucking sleep? The battle of an insomniac.
False Providence
When you believe in something so strongly for your whole life to realise it was all a lie. Unflinching loyalty to this belief. Prey to the ones who keep you safe, as god speakers through us, Suicidal sights remain.
Makeshift Harmony
Remaining close to those who are beautiful on the outside but toxic on the inside. You know it’s bad for you but you can’t let go.
Cimmerian
Forever shrouded in the darkness of my own thoughts. Death is the only saving grace.
