Chicago’s Heavy Rock Mainstays SOiL Pack A Punch With RESTORATION, Featuring Smash Single, “HALO” And All-New Recordings Of Their Hardest Hits

 After three decades spent blowing speakers and minds alike, Midwest metal magnates, SOiL, celebrate their long list of compositional accomplishments with Restoration, a brand-new set of studio recordings of the band’s biggest hits throughout their prolific history. Restoration highlights the band’s best musical moments, including smash hit singles, “Halo” and “Breaking Down,” from their 2001 award-winning album, Scars.

A standout addition to this compilation is the song, “The Lesser Man,” which originally appeared on 2009’s Picture Perfect with SOiL’s second vocalist, AJ Cavalier. The song ended up blowing up to become a top 20 radio hit on both mainstream and active rock. Restoration’s re-recording of the song features original SOiL vocalist, Ryan McCombs, breathing new life into the chart-topping anthem. “Ryan’s vocals add a new twist and direction to the song. It truly gives it a breath of fresh air,” declares SOiL bassist, Tim King.
