We don’t have to introduce the Melodic Death Metal masterminds of SOILWORK. With their mix of modern, melodic and progressive metal they created a distinctive sound. The last album “The Panic Broadcast” demonstrated the guys from Helsingborg are one of the best Swedish metal acts. The first dual-disc release “The Living Infinite“ will be unleashed in Europe on March 8 through Nuclear Blast records. “The Living Infinite“ was produced by Jens Bogren (OPETH,AMON AMARTH). Vocalist Bjцrn “Speed” Strid proudly announced the album: “The Living Infinite” will be a double album! A REAL double album, in the true sense of the word, which means no fillers and no left-overs. I’ve been wanting to do this for a while and I proposed the idea to the rest of the guys in the band, during our festival tour last summer.” The artwork of “The Living Infinite” was designed by MNEMIC’s guitarist Mircea Gabriel Eftemie. SOILWORK commented: “We’re all stoked about his work which is different from anything SOILWORK has ever done and perfectly suits the elegant oceanic concept of “The Living Infinite”. Enjoy folks!” Justin Sullivan lead singer of the British indie-rock-legend NEW MODEL ARMY will be guest vocalist on the track “The Windswept Mercy”. Bjorn “Speed” Strid is very proud to announce this special guest: “The man is a true legend, agentleman, and he has a very unique presence in his voice, on stage and in his lyrics. The fact that he wanted to lend his amazing voice to „The Windswept Mercy“ brought me to tears. He will forever be my hero.”
