American four-piece metalcore act, Circa Arcana, from El Paso, Texas brings forth a mixture of melodic aggressive vocals, bouncy breakdowns, and hard-hitting riffs. They released their first single “Esoteric” in 2021 and an EP “Bridget Vīgintī” in 2022. This year they are following it up with “F.U.C.K.Y.O.U.”, which they declare is the most unforgiving, aggressive, and meanest recording of the year. They have a new video out for the single “Switchblades and Fistfights” a high-octane song that will get your blood pumping. Vocalist Kevin Cangas comments on the rowdy track:
“It’s straight up a fighting song. This song was made for people to hit each other too, the perfect song to be in the mosh pit for. I feel like our music still has, from the first album to this one, some cool creepy sounds that happen which stems from our love for horror. I’m a huge Twilight Zone fan, always have been, and I’ve always been able to do that voice. We were trying to figure out the intro for the album and we were like fuck it, let’s do it like a Twilight Zone intro. And it was funny, everyone thought it was good but I said nah, put a rattlesnake rattle right there and I did the voice on top of it and it prepares you to get your feelings hurt by this EP. I fucking love it.”
According to the band, the first EP was very emo, more of a heartfelt fan-to-fan moment, and with this new record, after touring and seeing how shitty people are, they wrote this one in a dark place. Music runs in their veins., and they bring a mixture of melodic, aggressive vocals, and hard-hitting riffs.
The release date for the EP “F.U.C.K.Y.O.U.” is yet to be announced, but in the meantime, fans can get their adrenaline fix with the single “Switchblades and Fistfights”, which is recommended for fans of Wage War, We Came As Romans and Attila.
