Initially formed in 2004, it was in May 2010 that the formation of Soen was officially announced. Funding member drummer Martin Lopez describes Soen’s music as “melodic, heavy and intricate”.
Since Lopez and Joel Ekelöf formed the group, Soen have never shied away from exploration and analysis of self or society, both as musicians and expressionists. 2012’s 'Cognitive' beat a firmly heavy, progressive metal path, before 2014’s 'Tellurian' saw Soen start to stride freely into their own power and unique visions. Their third offering, 'Lykaia', was a conceptual journey exploring earthier places. Soen’s fourth album, 'Lotus' was another journey using a different set of perspectives.
