Soilwork is a Swedish heavy metal band from Helsingborg. They are currently signed to Nuclear Blast. Formed in late 1995 by Bj?rn Strid and Peter Wichers, originally under the name Inferior Breed, the band changed their name in late 1996 to Soilwork (meaning “working from the ground up”).
Their sound is a fusion of the classic Gothenburg metal sound with power-groove riffs of late 1970s, early 1980s British, and European metal. However, in their most recent albums, Soilwork has also introduced elements from other genres such as blues rock and alternative metal, and adopted a more melodic sound. Their most recent work has more singing and lighter melodies than their earlier work, as well as a more polished production.
Nuclear Blast has currently released three songs from Soilwork’s upcoming album The Living Infinite: “Spectrum of Eternity”, “This Momentary Bliss” and a music video for “Rise Above the Sentiment”.
The album was released February 27, 2013 in Asia, March 1 in Europe, March 4 in the UK and March 5th in North America.
