Statius was formed in the Winter of 2007 by five musicially driven metal crazed teenagers (ages 17 through 19). From the San Fernando Valley in California, Statius have embarked on a mission to incorporate all different genres and styles of heavy metal to create numerous epic mosaic heavy metal masterpieces. After sharing many stages with bands such as Eluveitie, Edguy, Tyr, Alestorm, Belphegor, Kivimetsan Druidi, Vried, Epicurean, Suidakra, Luna Mortis, Michael Angelo Batio, Bonded By Blood, Exmortus, Mantic Ritual, and more, Statius has quickly started to draw the attention of the eyes and ears of metal heads and music fans hungry for a new young talented act. With the release of their first 7 track E.P. "Arcane Fables" (which was recorded in 5 days), Statius is ready and craving to move forward on their musical venture.
Arcane Fables Tracklist: 1. Deep into that Darkness 2. Obsession with the Stars 3. Stormbracing 4. The Transformation 5. Forest Kin 6. Moonlight Tragedies 7. A Night to Remember $10 (plus 5$ shipping & handling)

Aye, it's great but coming off it is an experience!
Seattle was badass, it was a pretty sweet crowd and tore shit up as per usual. I also got very very drunk and passed out in the hallway through the bus, but that's another story!
Last few shows seemed to go about 100 times better than the previous ones. Back home now though and my body is just completely fucked up, sleeping is painful and hard after those fucking flights!
How're you guys keeping. A few guys on the tour ripped your EP so you've got more fans in bands :p My TM was very surpirised with you guys.
Thankyou for the add... You guys are awesome... Love the way everything's arranged and how everything falls into place together... Solos and stuff are flawless... Reminds me of the old arch enemy, mixed in with a bit of the old children of bodom and eternal tears of sorrow... Rather a unique sound... Would love to hear what more you guys have to offer... What I heard so far is amazing and I hope you guys go on with that pace or even better... Love what I heard, really enjoyed it... Keep it coming... Keep it real and keep it metal...
next time, i will headbang at one of your shows, i was next to the bass player, next to the white poll on my right, wearing Samael t-shirt and leather jacket.
hey guys! invite us over! we can be ur support act , if u guys have the crowd! promise, were a bunch of pretty scandinavian guys with kickass songs! but we want to get over there!
You guys were the best surprise at Heathenfest. Badass to see you in the moshpit for Alestorm and Eluveitie. And that F-ing bear. Ridiculously awesome. I love that even the other bands had to bring him out. May the Gods of Metal smile upon thee
You are welcome. Anytime there is smoke, it is best to not use flash because it will just reflect off of it and not shine through to the subject you are trying to capture. I got pictures of you guys but the light still made it hard for it not to blur. I'll mess around with them and see what I come up with.
Awesome show the other night. Glad I got to catch you guys and the Bear is a Win for sure! I got some pictures of you guys, so I'll send them to ya when I get them edited. Sadly, I didn't get as many good ones as I would have liked. The crazy lights and the fog kind of made it difficult.
