(Jens Bogren mixing the new material)

"After commissioning some pretty elaborate covers for the last couple of records, we decided to try something more sober and design-oriented for 'The Living Infinite'. Who better to call than the man who created the iconic 'Stabbing The Drama' cover? Mircea Gabriel Eftemie is not only a close friend but also an incredible graphic designer. We're all stoked about his work which is different from anything SOILWORK has ever done and perfectly suits the elegant oceanic concept of 'The Living Infinite'. Enjoy, folks!" -Soilwork

We also got some words from the album artist (and member of Mnemic) Mircea Gabriel Eftemie:


"Seven years ago, I created the artwork for the 'Stabbing The Drama' album and I can't believe how time flies! Here we are, with sexy gray hairs, working with my friends in SOILWORK again. This time, we built the cover around a maritime concept, aiming for something direct and symbolic. I believe we achieved that quite well. From my creative deck, I salute you and say: 'Long Live The Living Infinite.'"

Stay tuned for more details, singles and music videos!
