Jord is mixed and mastered by Buster Odeholm ( Born Of Osiris, Humanity's Last Breath, Vildhjarta, Hacktivist) at Odenholm Audio and featuring artwork by Caelan Stokkerman who handled artistic duties on their previous releases. Jord is also the first album in Soreption’s repertoire where the lyrics are directed more towards fiction, whereas previously the band have commented on current or near-future world affairs. When establishing the concept of Jord the band focused on the concept of fragments of reality after the end of the world by way of an apocalypse. Never a band to shy away from a groove, the record continues the aggression-and-melody mix that has become the Swedish band’s calling card.

In the video we follow a man trapped in this rapidly evolving artificial north."Ī triumph of a record, Jord sees Soreption at their most streamlined and potent, demonstrating so viscerally why they previously drew rave reviews globally with Engineering the Void (2014) and Monument of the End (2018). At the end of it all, we become what we feared from the start. How we slowly but surely become more digital than organic. On the new single, vocalist Fredrik Söderberg explains: "The concept of the song, in short, is about the extremes we go to for survival. The video, which was directed, filmed and edited by Anton Alfredsson with video footage of Ian Waye filmed by Renee Robyn, premiered at the official Unique Leader Youtube channe l. The second track to be taken from forthcoming album Jord is set for release on 10th June via Unique Leader Records.
