The Arrivals are a punk rock band hailing from the vibrant music scene of Chicago, Illinois, known for their raw energy and politically charged lyrics. The band was formed in the late 90s and has seen a few lineup changes over the years, but the constant has been their dedication to producing music that challenges the status quo and resonates with the disaffected and those craving authenticity in an often inauthentic world.

Their discography reflects a commitment to addressing social and political issues while maintaining a sound that is distinctly theirs. After releasing a series of noteworthy records, their album "Marvels of Industry" in 2007 set a new benchmark for the band, showcasing their ability to blend melody with a hard-hitting punk ethos. "Volatile Molotov," which came out in 2010, continued this trend with its incendiary mix of punk fervor and lyrical sharpness. The band took a breather but roared back with the "Goodbye New World" release, which carried their torch forward into the new era while staying true to their roots. In between, the "Growler - EP" and "Northern Hospitality," served as solid reminders of their rough-edged charm and their standing as stalwarts of the punk scene, never shying away from making a statement while supplying their fans with the raucous soundtracks to their lives. The Arrivals' staying power is a tribute to the power of punk's timeless appeal and the band's genuine connection with their audience.
