SOILWORK: Track-By-Track Commentary About NEW Dual Album 'The Living Infinite' Available!


As previously reported, 'The Living Infinite', the ninth studio album and first dual-disc release by Swedish melodic Metal maestros SOILWORK, will be unleashed on February 27th in Asia (via license to Marquee Records), in Europe on March 1st, and in North America on March 5th (via Nuclear Blast Records).

The bands drummer Dirk Verbeuren has posted the following track-by-track commentary about 'The Living Infinite' (Via Blabbermouth.net).

CD 1 of 'The Living Infinite':

01. Entering Aeons

Dirk: "This eerie, crawling instrumental sets the tone for chapter II of 'The Living Infinite'."


02. Long Live The Misanthrope

Dirk: "An up-tempo thrasher with killer riffs, epic solos and a catchy chorus: in short, 100% pure SOILWORK!"


03. Drowning With Silence

Dirk: "Crushing yet melodic, this track perfectly embodies the album's introspective atmosphere."


04. Antidotes In Passing

Dirk: "Melancholy abounds in this atmospheric piece."


05. Leech

Dirk: "At 260 bpm, the fastest song on the album and chock-full of Sylvain's signature riffing."


06. The Living Infinite II

Dirk: "Another catchy, heavy track with a timeless chorus."


07. Loyal Shadow

Dirk: "This beautiful instrumental honors a fallen friend."


08. Rise Above The Sentiment

Dirk: "A soaring chorus atop a roller coaster of heavy riffs."


09. Parasite Blues

Dirk: "Pounding grooves, thunderous guitars and epic melodies: this is blues the SOILWORK way!"


10. Owls Predict, Oracles Stand Guard

Dirk: "A magnificent Sven-penned closer, dark and truly unique, with lyrics by Ola."


CD 2 of "The Living Infinite":


01. Spectrum Of Eternity

Strid: "A fast and thrashy, yet melodic opener bringing you straight to the 'core of existence."


02. Memories Confined

Strid: "An epic song with Sven's signature."


03. This Momentary Bliss

Strid: "Reminding you of 'A Predator's Portrait' days. Super-catchy and groovy chorus."


04. Tongue

Strid: "A fast song with a great melancholic feeling."


05. The Living Infinite I

Strid: "A heavy driven mid-tempo song with a timeless melody."


06. Let The First Wave Rise

Strid: "If you mix SOILWORK with POSSESSED, this is what you get."


07. Vesta

Strid: "A very heavy and atmospheric song with an elaborate acoustic intro."


08. Realm Of The Wasted

Strid: "Insane guitar work with the most intricate chorus on the album."


09. The Windswept Mercy

Strid: "A melancholic but hopeful song featuring Justin Sullivan."


10. Whispers And Lights

Strid: "The epic ending track of the first album on which we just invented 'Levitating Metal.'"
