there's a broad variety of things that influence us in making music. basically everything that gets you thinking, one way or the other. books can be a huge influence, as well as that record of that band one of us is currently listening none stop to, or even things like watching landscapes passing by through the window on a train ride. simple things.
especially considering music we highly appreciate bands and people who have dedicated themselves to the diy spirit. we prefer putting our hearts in what we do, instead of worrying about profits, image, target-audiences and other shit like that. and we like people who share this opinion.
soey is a collective of punkrock musicians settled around the city of wiener neustadt in eastern austria. picking up the most fundamental of all punk-ethics, unconventionality, we try to play music that is energetic without bending down in front of pointlessness and dogmatism, considering both, music and lyrics. this is what we’re all about, this is what makes and keeps music exciting: creativity and content. challenging expectations. travelling and meeting people and friends. having fun.
if you had to describe our music you might probably get the best match by “melodic punk with post hardcore influences”. think of building on a base of melodic hardcorepunk by the likes of old rise against or propagandhi extended with some posthardcore and experimentalism.
this is not some sort of purchased fashionable rebellion. there is no need for alternative music, when the only things that are delivered are conservative ideas and a consumption-based lifestyle. we see ourselves as part of the anti-sexist, gay-positive, anti-fascist, animal-friendly and ecological-sustainable movement.
we played lots of shows in austria and in several other countries all across europe, such as germany, hungary, slovenia, croatia, the netherlands, belgium, switzerland, czech republic and the uk and had a good time during that.
our debut full length record rush hour in phanton city is out now via laserlife records. we love playing shows always and anywhere and we love to communicate, so don't hesitate to get in touch.

We're people in the industry/scene who understand what musicians and fans want. We're creating a place where music in the most important thing. Remember when Myspace was a cool place for band to be discovered? Now in 2009 it's basically nothing but bands adding bands! Not to mention tons of fans have moved on to facebook because of all the band spam! Yeah that's right, sorry to tell you kids, but the industry knows your numbers are the result of "friend blasters" and spending day and night doing random add's. No one is impressed! So, what will be the site that Facebook defectors and music fans search when they want to hear some music?
Band Array Dot Com
Sign up now, get your band name before someone else steals it! Fans sign up and get free downloads from the bands!
So why join up to a new site? It has all the perks of Myspace, BUT, you can also create a store right on your page to sell ALL your merch including digital media! And the best part is, YOU get paid direct via PayPal. No middle man to cut into your profits! One stop for you and your fans! And Hey, you can always use more exposure right?!?
