The latest single also comes with a stunning artwork created by Victor Portugal, a worldwide renowned tattoo artist. The artwork is available as a limited-edition poster, which will come with a certificate of authenticity. Order here: soen.tmstor.es/
Lopez comments, “Incendiary is a song about the true power of unification…even if there is a few in charge ‘we’, as the people, have the power to radically change things.” “It’s a heavy and melodic song that has both the more raw classic metal vibe as well as some proggy passages” adds singer and co-founder member Joel Ekelöf. “I would say that it has a lot of emotion and anger but also beauty and serenity.”
Your time will come
Your doom is pending
For no one can remain untouchable
And there is no one to depend
No one to pretend for
Your eyes are set on your dominion
That falsely you are claiming to deserve
And there is nowhere to escape
No way to evade a war
We remember when the sun shone bright
Then your presence brought a permanent shadow
‘Cause the light of truth was covered up
By a layer of deceit
The tyrant stares defiant at his feeble prey
But when the masses unite their strength
Revenge will lit the fire
Burning our past away
‘Cause decency does matter more than wealth and fame
Arming the humble with spiteful rage
Enough to shield the venom
From a thousand vicious snakes
The screams are loud
The bombs are louder
But will can turn around the impossible
And it is too late to repent
Too late to save your soul
The gain is theirs, the struggle ours
The scale is rigged to benefit the wolves
And nothing satisfies their greed
They just keep taking more
“For we were born here to bleed and with our bloody
hands we’ll plant the seeds of what’s to come, we’ll reach
the peace we need to live in harmony among ourselves,
no matter the cost, no matter the loss”
We remember when the sun shone bright
Then your presence brought a permanent shadow
‘Cause the light of truth was covered up
By a layer of deceit
The tyrant stares defiant at his feeble prey
But when the weakened unite their strength
Revenge will lit the fire
Burning all our past away
The tyrant stares defiant at his feeble prey
But when the masses unite their strength
Revenge will lit the fire
Burning our past away
‘Cause decency does matter more than wealth and fame
Arming the humble with spiteful rage
Enough to shield the venom
From a thousand vicious snakes

I'm a simple man, Soen drops the track and I am hit the like button, that's all
Going to see them in 2 days. Toronto May 9th baby 🤘
Soen has some of the best and most beautiful breakdowns. Thank you gentlemen 👏
Beautiful music from an excellent album. I'm going to see them live in just over 2 months. I can't wait.
First I listened to the song…..AWESOME!!! Then again with the lyrics and I was BLOWN AWAY!!! Overwhelming and so on point👏👏👏👍👍👍 And the video is awesome as well👍👍👍
Gracias Soen 🇨🇱
Gracias Soen...🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
Soen nunca decepciona. Uma das melhores bandas da vida.
First time I hear this song and i like it
Love those guitar harmonies. And the chord progressions. And the key changes. And the quiet section in the middle, reminded me of Lotus and Lykaia-era Soen. Good track
Great song guys!!!!!!!! Regards from Spain!!!!!
this is trully a masterpiece, well done Soen .. I'm playing it on repeat, I cannot get it out of my head! 🙂 ✌✌
The video is magnificent ❤ The song is amazing ❤
I got a surgery on my two teeth. During the first week of helign process, i felt the worst pain i ever due to jaw bones cut, painkillers were worthless. I was listening this to concentrate to traffic while it was really dark and early morning, pain was there and unreal, seperating me from instantaneous reality. i listened this song may be 200 times so far.
Excellent !! ...and the motion design is Perfect !!
Як їм вдається струнами тримати мене за душу... це неймовірно, дякую.
Your a great band 🤘🏻Soen 🤘🏻thank's for the music hugs from México guys
Excelente como siempre !!!! Saludos desde Uy
Absolutely can not wait to finally see them live one May 8!!!!!
Hi from Colombia. I love Soen ❤❤

A heartfelt masterpiece as always
Great song, so much power 🙌🏼 Please include it in the setlist for Mexico’s gig 😍😍😍

Wow!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥❤️😘
Não tem como não gostar… ❤
Looking forward to enjoying your music live on October 17th!
beautiful
Great song. Great vid
Genial canción
Great Song
Soen I love you immensely, excellent video, a set of great elements, congratulations guys. 🖤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The video can not be excellent at all cause it's generated with AI 😖
Que buena banda
Maaryo maaryo 🔥🔥🔥❤❤
excelente canción, sigan vivos siempre Soen
I usually stand hesitant about nascent AI-generated video hype but, the sequence between 2:17 - 3:46 is one hell of a way to execute it adequately, if it's not a work of some talented motion designer. Kudos to whoever made the video🤟 On the other hand, I am not in a position to critisize Soen, always perfect:)
🖤🖤🖤
Thank You👍
See you guys in Mexico!!!
SOEN 10/10
Nice clarity and balance, the volume seems slightly low though? But whatever, still a cool song. Have a good day. \m/
🎧▶🎶🔥
00:36 Nice, keep it up!
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Nice ...
🎉🎉🎉
❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤
🤘🤘🤘
🤘🤘🤘🤘❤❤❤❤
The screams are loud, the bombs are louder. Damm.... Saw you last year in Straßbourg it was a blast.
👏🏻😎
Venham a Portugal
Awesome song ! The punch is real !
if only we all could agree to disagree, everyone has a right to think, like, dislike, say their opinion, I personally loved the video despite having AI vibes or being AI generated, I mean there are better things to argue about in this fucked up world and I think that is a vital part of what Soen is about. Peace.
Come to Dubai plzzz
That's some decent shit, right there.
Awesome song. I feel it'll only get better the more I listen to it. Also glad to NOT hear overused wannabe trendy autotune crap like in some of the latest tracks.
🤘🇨🇦👍
Somzeira 🤙🫡
As much as I love Soen, I cannot support their use of AI generated images/clips and call it an official video. I'd rather have nothing over this. AI is still a hot topic in the art community, and I don't think this is the right approach to take, in respect to all artists who have been working twice as hard just to stay relevant within this flood of wonky stolen generated images. What concerns me more is how most of the population is completely unaware of the issues this is bringing, and unable to spot an AI generated image, even if blatant. That can only lead to the downfall of human artists who, god forbid, need to actually put in the work and time to make a good piece. Yes, it's more expensive, but it supports humans instead of a money grabbing community that feeds off of art made by the humans. The song is absolutely fucking epic, as always. Keep up the good work, guys. Just keep this in mind! Love you all
Bands are now contracting with specific artists to incorporate just their material into an AI generated video. It's not all just stolen for everwhere anymore. I'm not saying Soen has done this (I don't actually know) but it's better to do the research first before passing judgement.
First
Second 😂🔥
Já fizeram muito melhor
Verdade!
Soen plays grunge?
First?
❤️❤️❤️❤️🫠🫠🫠🫠🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
Since this song perfectly describes the situation....FREE PALESTINE!!!
Soen is basically my favourite band, and I know I might get some hate for this, but as an artist it's disappointing to just see an AI image slideshow called an official video Edit: The sentence in the description says "A stunning artwork". "A" meaning "one". Edit 2: acceptance of AI in art is obviously still debated, as many of the comment responses don't seem to be aware, but most arguments for its use could just as easily be made about music, which is why I'm surprised to see it used by fellow creatives. Furthermore, I wonder how artist Victor Portugal feels having his art used alongside AI images, seeming to condone their use.
John Connor agrees
A dark one directed by Patric Ullaeus could be obviously better, but lets enjoy the music (BTW, these IA videos seem to be the trend now... cheaper, faster, a pity...)
I am agree with you
No hate brother
No hate, but... times change, music industry changes, earnings change, and the costs and time spent in conventional clips not always let bands promote their music as they wanted or their music itself deserves. My respect for Soen and hope the band still grows for years.
Using AI feels like the complete opposite of what you talk about in your lyrics. It's an exploitative, immoral technology benefiting big corporations who illegally feed from artist's intelectual property. SUPPORT LIVING ARTISTS.
FREE PALESTINE
Завидуйте, мне это мама послала
Una gran banda que debería arriesgar un poco más para no pecar de aburrida y repetitiva. Para ser un vídeo oficial deja mucho que desear. No transmite nada. Saludos
Some passages of the video are really well made, but I'd still feel more comfortable if my favourite bands didn't resort to use AI generated images both for the cheap/uniformed randomness and jerky video style, and especially for the ethical implications. I wouldn't want a visual artist to fake AI music that copies Soen's style for their own video, so why would I want to see Soen use AI art that plagiarized the rights of thousands of artists? In the end bands that use this tool are going to slowly lose my respect as artists even though I still like their music, especially if it's a recurring thing, so I hope the hype on this kind of videos will soon become old...
No, not AI again 😪
AI generated?
Free the world from imperialism
😒😒😒😒 Nothing like Cognitive
Another cool song with a trash AI music video. Would honestly rather just an album cover..
Wth is this lol 😆
I hate these IA crap video music, these could be "official Visualizer" or something like that, but "official Video" it's sad..... however the song is amazing!!
The artist is Victor Portugal. This isn't AI.
not AI
So now that you realize it's not AI does the video still suck? Plus who cares if it is AI or not? As long as AI exists I guess you have a platform to argue with people SMH
Don't like this. The first half of the song sounds like Volbeat.
Disliked because of AI art
Ansioso por la llegada del viernes 12 de Abril para verlos en vivo nuevamente .
Asi es! Bandón
There comes a point where one runs out of things to say about a band. They are so darned consistent and so darned good. Year after year...
Can’t even call them prog anymore, nothing about this is anything but formulaic, generic and boring
This is a banger! They found their own thing, not just TOOL & Opeth crossover.
It is kind of pop-like in structure
To me, bunch of newer songs sound like some Soen cover band trying to make new music in their style
cognitive is still their best album; literally 0 skips.
@@meherenow793 best album by far, wish they kept going with that
Keep the Anti-Establishment coming! Loving these lyrics and everything from Imperial!!
Awesome!
