Sweden's melodic death metal veterans SOILWORK are back with big news! A new album and a return to Australia!!! After their EP release back in December of 2021, it is time for the first studio album in three years. Proudly SOILWORK announce their twelfth and latest masterpiece Övergivenheten which will be released on August 19th via Nuclear Blast Records.

Musically and lyrically evolved, SOILWORK release their most complex and elaborate album to date which marks a new phase of their career. Not only due to the tremendous effort and time they put in but also the results on the album reflect years of development and experience as a band, which is ultimately provided on Övergivenheten for the fans to enjoy.

SOILWORK comments on their new longplayer:
"The title track of this album just might be the pinnacle of this band’s musical journey - it sums up everything that we’ve ever been about and the sometimes risky musical venture that this band embarked on some 20 years ago. To us this song is as close to the heart as it gets”

Additionally, the band announced that Rasmus Ehrborn has officially joined as new bass player in the beginning of this year, which makes the SOILWORK line-up complete and ready again to capture the stages around the world!
