Soen Unleash New Video for ‘Axis’ and Announce Massive EU/UK Headline Tour with Tribulation and Vulkan
Swedish Progressive Metal Titans Bring Their Reliance Tour to 60+ Dates Across Europe and the UK This Autumn...
SOEN have unveiled the video for their crushing track ‘Axis’ taken from their current studio album Reliance, out now via Silver Lining Music.
‘Axis’ is a powerful metal anthem — a resolute, defiant reflection on humanity’s place, driven by Martin Lopez’s relentless yet swinging drums and Joel Ekelöf’s commanding vocal.
“‘Axis’ is about the moment when you start to notice that the roles you’re given don’t really belong to you,” explains vocalist Joel Ekelöf. “It’s about stepping beyond that distance we learn to live with, and remembering there’s something stronger underneath it. The fire is already there. The question is if we’re willing to stand closer and follow it together.”
“It’s a straight-up metal anthem for those of us who refuse to pretend that the people in power actually have our best interests at heart. A musical ‘fuck-you’ to all of them,” adds founding member and drummer Martin Lopez.
