Soen - Fortune (Official Performance Video)

"FORTUNE" is taken from a very special concert film, ATLANTIS, which features thirteen of SOEN’s most popular compositions reinterpreted with live orchestral accompaniment and the fantastic rendition of Slipknot's "Snuff". The full concert is set for release on November 18 2022 via Silver Lining Music. Pre-order now: https://lnk.to/SoenATLANTIS

The perfect way for Soen to celebrate a decade together; ATLANTIS was created within the mystic and magical confines of Atlantis Grammofon Studio in Stockholm, Sweden, which has seen a wide range of international artists record, from Quincy Jones to Lenny Kravitz to Green Day. Formerly a movie house in 1941, it went on to become Metronome Studio (during which time ABBA was born) before becoming Atlantis Grammofon in 1983.

Filmed and recorded on December 10th 2021, Martin Lopez (drums & percussion), Joel Ekelöf (lead vocals), Lars Enok Åhlund (guitars & piano), Cody Lee Ford (lead guitar) and Oleksii “Zlatoyar” Kobel (bass) worked together with an 8-piece orchestra to reinterpret and rediscover fresh energy and elements in classic Soen songs, such as “Antagonist”, “Monarch”, “Jinn” and “Lucidity”, as well as introducing a stunning interpretation of Slipknot’s deeply dark meditation on darkness rejecting love, “Snuff”. The end result of this 80 minutes performance is some remarkable new aural refractions of Soen’s greatest material for fans to absorb and enjoy. As has always been the way with Soen: the deepest dives yield the greatest treasures.

Hot on the heels of their recently mostly sold-out shows in Europe and UK, the relentless metal quintet are now due to embark on a North American tour.
