Breakout Prog-Alt-Metal band Stellar Circuits has released their 3rd album, “Phantom :: Phoenix”, today via Nuclear Blast Records. The band’s follow up to 2023’s acclaimed record “Sight To Sound”, is a cathartic work of art that explores the trials and tribulations of life and death and the process of healing and perseverance in the face of agony, and features a unique melding of progressive alternative and metal on singles like ‘Bury The Ashes,’ ‘I See Your Spirit’ and ‘Corridor.’
With the record’s release, Stellar Circuits has debuted a new video for their song ‘Elegant Illusion.’
Commenting on the highlighted track, vocalist Ben Beddick says:
“‘Elegant Illusion’ drifts into some areas we never really explored before. There was this almost funky and uplifting feeling to the verse and it was exciting to tap into that. The song goes into a few different places but everything just kinda felt like it flowed together in the right way when all was said and done. Overall it feels like a new vibe for us and we like the energy and variety that it brings to the album as a whole.”
