Atlantis | CD | Soen

Comes in a CD/DVD package (Digipak).

On November 18, 2022, the captivating, enchanting, edgy, and yet beautiful Swedish metal supergroup SOEN (via Silver Lining Music) will release a very special concert film called ATLANTIS. ATLANTIS consists of thirteen of the most well-known compositions from SOEN's band history, all of which have been reinterpreted with a live orchestra accompaniment. It is the perfect way for SOEN to celebrate their decade-long band anniversary. ATLANTIS was created within the mythical and magical walls of Atlantis Grammofon Studios in Stockholm, Sweden, whose sacred halls have already welcomed a roster of international artists, from Quincy Jones to Lenny Kravitz to Green Day. Originally opened as a cinema in 1941, the short-lived former cinema later became the Metronome Studio (and saw the birth of ABBA) before being renamed Atlantis Grammofon in 1983. Filmed and recorded on December 10, 2021, Martin Lopez (drums & percussion), Joel Ekelöf (vocals), Lars Enok Åhlund (guitar & piano), Cody Lee Ford (lead guitar), and Oleksii 'Zlatoyar' Kobel (bass) collaborated with an eight-piece orchestra to reinterpret and rediscover fresh energy and other elements in classic SOEN songs. Among them are pieces like 'Antagonist,' 'Monarch,' 'Jinn,' or 'Lucidity,' as well as a premiere in the form of a breathtaking interpretation of Slipknot's deeply dark song meditation on love-rejecting darkness, 'Snuff.' The result of this 80-minute performance is ear-opening reinterpretations of SOEN's best material, which fans can truly immerse themselves in and enjoy anew. It is as it has always been with SOEN: the deepest dives bring forth the greatest treasures.
