Soen - Lotus

Almost two years after the release of “Lykaia”, Soen are back with their new release “Lotus” and a new guitarist, Cody Ford. The cooperation with Marcus Jidell (The Doomsday Kingdom, Avatarium, ex-Royal Hunt) didn’t last that long, but I guess parting ways is always for the best of both parts most of the times.
 

Soen to release new studio album “Lotus” on February 1st 2019

On February 1st, 2019, Swedish-based progressive metal group, Soen, will release their fourth album, “Lotus”, via Silver Lining Music with preorders available on November 16th.
 
Having spent the last six months digging deep into the muddy depths of their emotions, the nine songs comprising Soen’s “Lotus” are intoxicating, addictive aural therapies, questioning much of today’s darkness while juxtaposing them with moments of great escape and hope.

Hi Martin, it’s always fine talking to you dude. Your new album, “Lykaia”, is really magnificent! If I may say so, I think it’s your best work to date. Congrats!
 
M: Thank you and it’s a pleasure to be back.
 
 
First things first… do tell us, why did Kim leave the band and how did you decide that Marcus Jidell (The Doomsday Kingdom, Avatarium, ex-Royal Hunt) should be your new guitarist?
 

Soen - Lykaia

“Lykaia” is the new and third studio album by Soen, which marks a rather significant change for the band. Guitarist & producer Kim Platbarzdis is no longer with the band and he was replaced by guitarist (and producer too) Marcus Jidell (The Doomsday Kingdom, Avatarium, ex-Royal Hunt). Marcus is a great guitarist, producer & songwriter, so Soen have made a great choice in general. Let’s hope he sticks around with the guys and stay for many years.

Hi Martin… I’m pleased we’re given the chance to chat about your second album “Tellurian”, which made it (like the first one) into our “Gems” category! I guess it ain’t a coincidence huh?!!
 
M: Hopefully not. We worked really hard since “Cognitive” to write a better record on all fields and judging by ourselves, our audience and the media, we succeeded.
