Sweden’s SOEN fuse progressive metal, the atmospheric depth of post-rock and melodic richness into a sound that is entirely their own.

Since the release of their boundary-pushing debut album Cognitive (2012), former Opeth drummer Martin Lopez and vocalist Joel Ekelöf have made SOEN one of the most fascinating live acts in modern metal.

Six studio albums later, their record Memorial (2023) was named Album of the Year by Metal Hammer. With a worldwide fanbase and a string of critically acclaimed albums, SOEN deliver a live experience that is as brutal as it is haunting – technically demanding and deeply human.

If you’re into bands like Architects, Gojira, Disturbed, Tool, Devin Townsend, Opeth and Katatonia, you should not miss SOEN. Expect massive dynamics, raw emotion and moments of true musical transcendence.
