Soul Corner is a Finnish alternative rock band established in 1999. The band has published one longplay "Twilight Report" in 2006 and is currently recording the next album "Partners in Crime".
The philosophy of the band is not to satisfy everyone's music tastes, but to offer alternative tunes during these days when most of the music is so over-produced mainstream...Listen to our songs with an open mind and try to understand why we do what we do. If you can't get it, it's just fine...we are sure you can find more suitable freetime activity for yourself than listening to us...
