’Tragedian’ from our the new album 𝐌𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐋! Out now:
#soen #memorial
Memorial is drenched in melody with face-crushing guitars and rhythms from start to finish. Album opener ‘Sincere’ starts off with relentless propulsion, whilst the sheer power of the title track is enriched with a solid groove, underlying the weighty tones and evocative vocals of Joel Ekelöf.
Finishing with the beautiful, tragic, Pink Floyd-esque ballad ‘Vitals’, Memorial is arguably the band finding their best stride yet. Soen have been building up to this moment for years and now they’re here with Memorial, which is an inspiring modern hard rock classic.
TRAGEDIAN
Can we decide on how we want to live our lives?
Should we continue as we fall?
Are we expecting to be chosen by a God?
Or are we trapped within these walls?
‘Cause I want to believe
That compassion could be the cure
There is no one to turn to
When times are hard you’re standing on your own
The winds are blowing harder
Yet we stand still
‘Cause sometimes to try is not enough
Right here we’re going nowhere
No one believes
That happiness can’t be bought
Walking together we can reach the mountain top
‘Cause every step will make us strong
Even if others tell us we should be apart
Both of us know where we belong
And I do not believe
That your riches will make you whole
The image you abandon
Is part of you whoever you become
The winds are blowing harder
Yet we stand still
‘Cause sometimes to try is not enough
Right here we’re going nowhere
No one believes
That happiness can’t be bought
Right here we’ll stay
Right here we’re standing tall all alone
The winds are blowing harder
Yet we stand still
‘Cause sometimes to try is not enough
Right here we’re going nowhere
No one believes
That happiness can’t be bought
