SOEN Drop SLIPKNOT Cover Single, Video For “Snuff” By Larry Petro, News Monkey Friday, October 14, 2022 @ 9:51 AM
The track is taken from the forthcoming release ATLANTIS, out via Silver Lining Music on November 18, 2022.
Founding members Martin Lopez and Joel Ekelöf explain their selection of SLIPKNOT’s deeply dark meditation on darkness rejecting love “Snuff”: “We wanted to do something extra special during the ATLANTIS concert. The obvious path would have been to pick an epic progressive song from the likes of GENESIS, PINK FLOYD etc. Instead, we went for the opposite with "Snuff", a scaled down and brutally honest song that we all love in its powerful sincerity.”

ATLANTIS is a special concert film featuring thirteen of the group’s most popular compositions reinterpreted with live orchestral accompaniment. ATLANTIS was created within the mystic and magical confines of Atlantis Grammofon Studio in Stockholm, Sweden, which has seen a wide range of international artists record, from Quincy Jones to Lenny Kravitz to Green Day. Formerly a movie house in 1941, it went on to become Metronome Studio (during which time ABBA was born) before becoming Atlantis Grammofon in 1983.
Filmed and recorded on December 10, 2021, Martin Lopez (drums & percussion), Joel Ekelöf (lead vocals), Lars Enok Åhlund (guitars & piano), Cody Lee Ford (lead guitar) and Oleksii “Zlatoyar” Kobel (bass) worked together with an 8-piece orchestra to reinterpret and rediscover fresh energy and elements in classic SOEN songs, such as “Antagonist”, “Monarch”, “Jinn” and “Lucidity”.
The end result of this 80 minutes performance is some remarkable new aural refractions of SOEN’s greatest material for fans to absorb and enjoy. As has always been the way with SOEN: the deepest dives yield the greatest treasures.
ATLANTIS was recorded by David Castillo and Iñaki Marconi, mixed by Castillo, and mastered by Tony Lindgren. The performance was filmed and directed by George Laycock from the bespoke British production house Blacktide Phonic/Visual.
ATLANTIS will be available as a DVD-CD with bonus footage, a Double 12” Limited Edition Vinyl, Long Form Video, Digital Download and Streaming.

SOEN wish to thank them deeply for their immense contribution to this performance.
