WHERE THE STATUES BREATHE Lyrics – VOILÀ

VOILÀ is sealing their raw emotional arc with The Last Laugh (Part II), the sequel album dropping November 21, 2025, on Stem, and Where the Statues Breathe drifts in like a ghost in the gallery, that sparse tease pulling you into stone-cold isolation where even gods hold their breath.

Joe Mulherin and Sean Harmanis have a real gift for turning quiet devastation into something you lean into, and this track hints at their sharpest yet. From the snippet they floated in last week’s teaser, it’s all about that numb pull toward empty grandeur—places where hearts can’t root, company feels like echoes, and feeling nothing becomes the only constant.

Part II picks up right where the June drop left off, a 14-track odyssey through laughter’s darker side, blending heartbreak hooks with unexpected lifts. The concept circles that twisted joy in the fallout: singles like VOGUE and BEAUTY SLEEP set the glossy entry, PAPERROUTE with WesGhost adds grit midway, and this breathes life into the back half before the outro seals it. Tracks like TIC TAC TOE tease playful jabs at fate, all clocking around an hour of no-fat builds that reward the spin. It’s their boldest statement as a duo, weaving solo scars into shared stories.

The pair’s hitting their stride just as the buzz crests, fresh off Reading and Leeds sets that had crowds chanting like old friends, and that Australian tour announcement locking in February dates. Mulherin’s nothing,nowhere. roots and Harman’s punk edge make VOILÀ feel like the collab we needed, turning personal rebuilds into anthems that stick through the quiet hours.
