Swedish melodic death metal icons, Soilwork, have unveiled their latest single, Spirit of No Return, a track that highlights the band’s signature mix of intensity, melody, and intricate arrangements, with a hint of progressive elements. The accompanying music video features a stunning sequence where the iconic Soilwork symbol is reforged, symbolizing the band’s resurgence and renewed strength.
This single also marks a pivotal moment for Soilwork as they officially welcome longtime live guitarist, Simon Johansson, into their permanent lineup.
Commenting about the song, frontman Björn “Speed” Strid shares: “'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 deal with the urge to belong and fit in – and how it in the end can be disastrous as you abandon your true self.”
