ick III (stylized as KicK iii) is the sixth studio album by Venezuelan record producer and singer Arca. The album was scheduled to be released on 3 December 2021, but released early on 1 December 2021, through XL Recordings as a continuation to her 2020 record Kick I, and is the third entry in the Kick quintet. Kick II, Kick III, Kick IIII and Kick V are to be released the same week. Kick III has been supported by lead single "Incendio", and "Electra Rex". Its cover art was photographed by Frederik Heyman.

In March 2018, Björk released an EP featuring remixes of ‘Arisen My Senses’ by Jlin, Kelly Lee Owens and Lanark Artefax. The title song ‘Arisen My Senses’ opens Björk’s latest album, Utopia, and was co-produced by Arca. A 12″ edition of the EP will be released May 25 on One Little Indian and is pressed on "slug genitalia" colored vinyl.

When this week started, there was only one album in Arca’s Kick series. Now there are five. Today, Arca has released kick iiiii, the fifth and final volume of her ambitious project. KiCk i arrived last year, with the promise of more to come. Stating this past Tuesday, Arca made good on that promise and rolled out an album a day all week. This one’s an appropriately meditative conclusion to the project, and it features a track with the legendary Ryuichi Sakamoto on “Sanctuary.”

Arca has announced that kick iiii, her fourth and final album in the KICK series, will drop on Dec. 3 via XL Recordings, the same day as the previously announced albums KICK ii and KicK iii.

Kick II (stylized as KICK ii, pronounced as Kick Two) is the fifth studio album by Venezuelan record producer and singer Arca. The album is scheduled to be released on December 3, 2021 through XL Recordings as a continuation to her 2020 record Kick I, complementing the Kick tetralogy. Kick II has been presented with three single so far: "Born Yesterday", featuring vocals by Australian musician Sia and A / B singles "Prada" and "Rakata".

Arca drops the dekunstructed club electronyx in favor of captivating church-core theatrics - think Michael Nyman x Björk, ish.

Produced and recorded by Arca, KiCk i defines a new era of multiplex harmony for the Venezuelan artist, singer, DJ, performer and experimental music composer. With appearances from Björk, Rosalía, Shygirl and Sophie, this is the first time Arca has invited collaborators into her world, previously having lent her sound to some of the decades most avant-pop artists.
