British Rockers Soul Gazer Release New Single “Made For This”

“Made For This” is the snarling and defiant second single from Brexit-defying Grit rockers Soul Gazer and has already hit national radio airwaves in the UK courtesy of new music guru John Kennedy at Radio X. It follows in the thunderous footsteps of debut single “W.A.R.” (which V13 premiered) that saw the band amass 2.5k monthly Spotify listeners and over 250 Spotify playlist adds, land on the Amazing Radio B-List playlist, amass critical acclaim from BBC Introducing and have landed themselves directly onto Dr. Martens prestigious in-store playlists across Europe.

The song is a brooding, dark and rebellious force to be reckoned with. It embodies the band’s never-say-die spirit and camaraderie. Despite being spread across Europe and living 1,500 miles apart in Liverpool, Hamburg and Zürich, Soul Gazer was “Made For This!” And it takes just seconds for the hauntingly heavy riff of “Made For This” to bludgeon you into paying them attention.

The band has opened for the mighty Wunderhorse in Germany and has been heaped with praise for their raucous and powerful live show. Action-packed with energy, spirit and the charismatic confidence and swagger that has defined many great northern British guitar bands before them. Crafted in the North of England but sprinkled with an adventurous European flavour it’s easy to see why Soul Gazer excites.

“Made For This” was produced at Liverpool’s Kempston Street Studios by Chris Taylor (Miles Kane, The Coral, Blossoms) and mastered by Brian Lucey at LA’s Magic Garden Mastering (Arctic Monkeys, Black Keys, Blondie).

Soul Gazer comments:

“It takes a certain kind of person to be willing to rip away all the safety nets you have in life, plonk yourself in another country where you don’t know anyone and don’t even speak the language and just figure it out as you go. That’s a shared experience we all have in this band.

“And it’s that special bond and understanding we have with each other that makes us so determined to make this work despite all the obstacles we are up against with Brexit etc. It just drives us on to push even harder, and when we do get in a room together with our instruments, none of that s*** matters anymore. We just feel invincible.”

Mike Joyce of The Smiths had this to say:

“Heavy gear this! Reminds me of early Tame Impala or Flaming Lips!”
