Statues is the fifth album from the electronic/dance group Moloko, the fourth of all-new material. It was issued by Echo Records in 2003. After working with live musicians on their previous effort Things to Make and Do, Moloko returned to electronic territory with this album (although the previous album's organic influences remains, as seen on "Familar Feeling" and "Over and Over"). At the time of its release, the long-term romantic partnership between group members Róisín Murphy and Mark Brydon had dissolved, setting the stage for Murphy's 2005 solo album Ruby Blue. Moloko toured Europe extensively to promote the album and disbanded shortly thereafter.

Included with Statues is a bonus DVD which contains all of the duo's music videos up to that point. First single "Familiar Feeling" became Mokolo's third top-ten hit on the UK singles chart. Statues peaked at number eighteen in the UK. The video for Familiar Feeling was directed by renown photographer Elaine Constantine.
