SOARE is an American Hard Rock/Metal band. They made their debut earlier this year with the single “A Curious Case of Mistaken Identity.” With that track they introduced their unique Metal blend of genres and subgenres. Since then, the hard-rocking three piece has dropped three additional singles. With each new release they delve further into their experiments combining guttural Death Metal scream vocals with Art-Rock complexity and melodic Alternative Rock composition.
“Super Nova (An Appetite for Lies)” is one of the band’s most recent releases. The song is an excellent example of the many sides to this dynamic group, from its classical piano intro and refrain to the Pantera-style Metal groove in the verse and the juxtaposition of Male screamo vocals and melodic female lead. Recently The Static Dive sat down (virtually) with the members of SOARE to talk about the new song, the band and the future.

Q: What inspired you to create this project?
A: Rob was inspired to create this project in his teen years after falling in love with music. It was always the one thing he could escape to and the one thing that always made him feel welcome and understood. It’s helped him through many ups and downs as it has for so many others. He decided he wanted to do that for others and wanted to use something he loved doing to help achieve that. After saving up money and working for the equipment he was able to put together and record the first few SOARE songs and shortly after brought in the other two members.
