ARC

"A complex fusion of organic and synthetic, ARC seamlessly blend the brutality and melody of modern extreme metal with the retro-futuristic synthesized electronica of synthwave in a total assault upon the senses, capped off by a frenetic stage show comprised of lasers and smoke, blood and sweat, and the furious energy of the band’s will to dominate."

Not "human" we are ever-changing swarms of electronic information that "send transmissions" to earth from the dataverse.

Such are the words from ARC, a progressive, thought-provoking, shape-shifting musical collective formed out of the ether that permeates New York. ARC is many things at once, which automatically subjects the band to the journalistic and fan guessing game/rite of passage as to what style they actually are.

While the metal scene seems mired in stagnation and the never-ending race to be more brutal or more technical or more dissonant, ARC shines with progress and out-of-the-box thinking and a seamless blend of the nostalgia of synthwave with the complexity of extreme metal. They are a message, a transmission, weaving an intricate narrative through multimedia and redefining the concept of a truly immersive entertainment experience. ARC is a powerwave of expression, weaponizing music and stage show performance, leaving the audience both dizzied and delighted, through complex and fully custom, mechanisms.

The signal that is ARC is fluid and ever-evolving.
