Soen (ex-Opeth) Unveil Latest Single, “Monarch”

Following “Antagonist,” the first single from their forthcoming fifth full-length album, Imperial, the prolific Swedes in Soen, founded by former Opeth drummer Martin Lopez and singer Joel Ekelöf, have unveiled their latest single, “Monarch.”

The band offers of the song:

“‘Monarch‘ is an epic, dynamic song about the traditional attributes of mankind. The belief that showing compassion and kindness is a sign of weakness. The lack of direction and guidance in society is turning younger generations into violent and destructive creatures, because they are living in an age where bullies are kings and the rest are prey.”

Give it a listen below along with a music video. Imperial comes out on January 29, 2021 via Silver Lining Music; pre-order here.
