FROM SOILWORK: 

We spent the last few months celebrating the 30th year anniversary of Soilwork with you. From going through every album, talking with old friends who joined us in various parts of the journey to playing arena shows with swedish colleagues - we want to thank all of you, our fans, from the bottom of our hearts for your support. Soilwork is just as much you as it is us, you inspire us to reach for the stars, even after 30 years. Two years after the release of our last single we want to give you Night Whispers & Shining Lights as a thank you at the end of an era we are closing off with this song. Its time for a new chapter and we can’t wait to share everything we’ve been working on with you, but until then take your headphones, go for a walk and listen to Night Whispers and Shining Lights.
