treeduck Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 QUOTE (tjtull @ Mar 26 2012, 10:00 AM) Finally got this CD in the mail last week. It was backordered and took over a month to get to me. I've listened to it about 4 times through and I like it a lot!! Really good Tool/APC vibes going on. The lead singer has an exceptional voice and the lyrics seem to be pretty good. Yes it's a good album! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good,bad,andrush Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I love this man! I love Tool and Opeth and APC and whatnot and while this may be a bit of a clone band with a few original bits here and there, it's just some more really good stuff to add to my collection. Can't believe I just discovered it. Tool/APC are one of my favorite bands ever so there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod in Toronto Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 9 years later, I'm resurrecting this thread to say that I'll interview Martin Lopez tomorrow, to talk about the new Soen album, "Imperial". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepphead Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I look forward to listening to the new album at the weekend. For me Soen haven't made a weak album - always interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) Had a good chat with Martin Lopez today. And he remembered me from the first interview we did back in 2018!!! "Hey, you're that Brazilian guy from Canada! We had a good chat a while ago! I do so many of those interviews, and it's nice to remember the good ones". That was surreal. The new album is KILLER. Same album as before, but KILLER. Edited January 29, 2021 by Rod in Toronto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I love the new album! As good as Lotus? Yes. Honestly. And I don't think it's exactly the same, but this band is...my heart...I love them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 One thing I mentioned to him is how they deal with difficult subjects in the lyrics, sometimes in a harsh, heavy and aggressive way, but they keep their sense of melody intact. He loved that, and said "that is pretty much our mission statement!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
