Matt Soren's newest album is "Return from Broken." It is one in which Soren fuses intense Electronic and Psychedelic Rock techniques to present a very cutting-edge sounding album that was made after Soren's successful battle with addiction and recovery. In "Breathe" we hear an echoed and industrial-type beat interact with Soren's effected voice and dancing synth tones. "Become" is a complex and building song with a lot of electronic sounds moving in and out giving way to a more soothing sounding tonality. For "On the Edge" we hear Soren play a relatively simple song as he begins by playing on his acoustic guitar before more hallucinatory sounds slowly move in. This is an album that is best described as Psychedelic/Industrial Rock, where the traditional use of the guitar is abandoned for more industrial sounding effects. Fans of Nine Inch Nails or Muse would find themselves drawn to Matt Soren's album, "Return from Broken."

One travels from mechanistic horror to electronica / classical bliss. Soren has done something nearly impossible that all great artists must do.  He has been to the bottom and now on the way up he is inspiring others to lift themselves out of despair and forge their own happiness.
