PlanetMosh Keeping it Metal

For the past month, SOILWORK have been gracing fans with tons of new exclusives like lyric videos, album samplers, gear videos and track premieres. Why stop now? Today, SOILWORK have revealed yet another new track from The Ride Majestic, entitled “Enemies in Fidelity”. You can listen now via Loudwire: http://loudwire.com/soilwork-enemies-in-fidelity-exclusive-song-premiere/
Vocalist Bjorn “Speed” Strid states, ““Enemies in Fidelity” is indeed a very melodic and atmospheric beast. This was one of the first songs that I wrote for the new album and it holds a lot of surprises. The chorus almost sounds as if Simon and Garfunkel started a black metal band. That’s the way we like it – playful, dark, intense and melancholic. It definitely stands out, but also gives you an overall idea of what SOILWORK currently is about.
The lyrics deal with whether you should escape or succumb to the suffering that you might experience in your life, in order to find new strength. The ambivalence. The guilt and the respect towards your own existence. Being awakened and finding satisfaction through frustration and anger, to a point where it almost becomes addictive. Enjoy!”
Stay tuned for a music video for “Enemies In Fidelity” coming soon and check out samples of all The Ride Majestic tracks here:
