Two of Europe’s most respected metal acts are joining forces. Dark Tranquillity and Soen have officially announced a joint North American tour scheduled for spring 2026, promising a powerful convergence of styles and generations.
The tour brings together Dark Tranquillity, pioneers of the Gothenburg melodic death metal sound, and Soen, one of modern progressive metal’s most acclaimed and emotionally resonant bands. Together, they offer audiences a rare opportunity to experience two complementary visions of contemporary heavy music in a single night.
For Dark Tranquillity, the tour continues their strong relationship with North American audiences and reinforces their enduring relevance decades into their career. Fronted by Mikael Stanne, the band remains a cornerstone of melodic extreme metal.
Soen, meanwhile, enter the tour at a peak moment in their evolution, known for immersive live performances that balance technical precision with emotional depth. Their presence adds a progressive and introspective dimension to the tour’s overall experience.
