Soilwork release video for new single ‘Spirit Of No Return’

Author Benedetta Baldin - 2.10.2024

Swedish melodic death metal legends Soilwork are back with a brandnew single, ‘Spirit of No Return,’ along with a powerful and visually striking music video. The track marks a significant milestone in the band’s evolution, with longtime live guitarist Simon Johansson recently officially joining the ranks of the band.

Spirit of No Return‘ showcases Soilwork’s signature blend of frenzied intensity, soaring melodies, epic arrangements, and a touch of progressive complexity – traits that have cemented their reputation over the last decades. Johansson’s contribution to the song’s writing channels the band’s essence while bringing fresh energy to their unmistakable sound.

The video is equally captivating, featuring a stunning sequence where the iconic Soilwork symbol is reforged, representing the band’s resurgence and renewed strength. This visual narrative perfectly complements the song’s theme of perseverance and transformation.

‘Spirit Of No Return’ is a fierce reminder of the past, but also an introduction of the new Soilwork era, where we’ve taken the thrashier early days and dressed it in a new heavier suit. Lyrics are dealing with the urge of belonging and fitting in – and how it in the end can be disastrous as you abandon your true self. Björn “Speed” Strid
