Swedish Songwriter Captures the Essence of Reluctance and Redemption in His Latest Single

As a music critic, I've trained my ears to discern the whispers of ingenuity amid the cacophony of mainstream releases. That's why Vargen's "Easter Soul" feels like stumbling upon a hidden gem in an oversaturated market. From Varberg, Sweden, Vargen isn't merely an artist; he's a mood, a vibe, an atmosphere. In his release "Easter Soul," he transcends the traditional boundaries of AOR, Classic Rock, and Indie, amalgamating them into a unique soundscape that is true to himself.


From the get-go, a bluesy wah-wah guitar riff sets the stage, pulling you into Vargen's narrative. But this is no ordinary story; it's a reflection on the often unwilling role we play as scapegoats in a world devoid of salvation. The subject matter is heavy but navigated with eloquence and depth.


The track encapsulates humanity's age-old quest for signs, messages, or, dare I say, redemption. Vargen masterfully marries the lyrical heaviness with a musical arrangement that alternates between buoyant and contemplative. It's this delicious duality that makes "Easter Soul" more than just a song—it's an experience, an odyssey into the multifaceted soul of rock.

Musically, Vargen is unapologetically himself, crafting a sonic space that is as nostalgic as it is novel. The guitars don't just strum; they wail, lament, and, at times, celebrate.


As "Easter Soul" progresses, what becomes evident is that Vargen is a storyteller. And like any great story, the song leaves you pondering long after its concluded. It invites you to question your own life narrative and how you fit—or don't fit—into it.


Vargen has set the bar high with "Easter Soul," leaving listeners not just satisfied but hungry for his upcoming album. As for me? I've already cleared space on my playlist, and I suggest you do the same. Oh and whilst you're at it, have a little peak at a few live tracks below!
