Sounds | Soen - Unbreakable

Een nieuwe Soen... altijd fun. Ik heb zo de indruk dat de band geleidelijk aan meer straight en melodieus wordt, een trend die al even is ingezet. Unbreakable is zo'n meewiegnummer waarbij je eerder je dansbenen zou folteren i.p.v. je nekspieren. Jaja, nog power genoeg en perfect voor deze schitterende zomerse dag.

Memorial verschijnt op 1 september 2023 via Silver Lining Music.

LIVE donderdag 12 oktober 2023, De Casino (Sint-Niklaas, BE)

zaterdag 14 oktober 2023, Melkweg (Amsterdam, NL)

The new single is a statement of intent of what’s to come from the forthcoming album and sees the band take a much heavier approach but still retain their melodic sensibilities.

Founding member and drummer Martin Lopez comments, “‘Unbreakable’ is a song about how you limit yourself as a human, by blindly believing in something.” Vocalist and co-founding member Joel Ekelöf continues, “Politicians and the media paint everything as black or white, entitling you to try to destroy your opponent instead of trying to find common ground. It’s key to be humble and open to different viewpoints to keep growing, ‘Unbreakable’ feels like a marriage between classic-metal and Soen.”

The new album has a potent drive and sees the band channel the ills of current society with a crisp, riff heavy ferocity but at the same time still showcasing Soen’s unique blend of progression, aggression, and beauty.

Soen are completed by Lars Enok Åhlund (Keyboards and Guitar), Oleksii ‘Zlatoyar’ Kobel (Bass) and Cody Ford (Lead Guitar) and are set to play at this year’s Download Festival (GB) on Sunday 11th June, before embarking on the Memorial 2023 tour in Europe this September, with the newly added show at the Locomotiv in Bologna (IT).
