Backstory:
Acceptable Soil was formed in 2011, in a small town in Vermont, where life was as mundane as it could possibly get. The band was initially a teenage escape plan for four high school friends – lead vocalist Austin ‘Rex’ Johnson, lead guitarist ‘Mad Mike’ Hamilton, bassist Joey ‘The Wall’ Simmons, and drummer Sam ‘Cyclone’ Frank. It started with the teens jamming in their garages, basements, and at local gigs. Overflowing with raw energy and a desire to push the boundary of their music, they soon found their rhythm and created a unique sound that resonated with their listeners. Their shared love and passion for music helped them rise from the ordinary to create something extraordinary.

‘Eternal Echoes’
Full Song Lyrics:
Verse 1:
[Am] Staring at the [G] reflections of [F] yesterday,
[Am]The silent road [G] whispers a sweet [F] serenade.
[Am] Running from the [G] shadows, towards [F] the unknown,
[Am] Seeking the peace, [G] in the chaos [F] they’ve sown.
Chorus:
[C] Eternal echoes [G] in the hallway of [Dm] our minds,
[Am] Remnants of the past [F] we’ve left behind.
[C] Look ahead, [G] let go, let your [Dm] spirit free,
[Am] In the Acceptable Soil, [F] we will forever be.
Verse 2:
[Am] In dreams we [G] wander, between [F] hope and despair,
[Am] Holding onto [G] moments, the world [F] can’t share.
[Am] With hearts on [G] fire, we paint [F] our destiny,
[Am] Our songs, our stories, [G] our legacy [F] in eternity.
Chorus:
[C] Eternal echoes [G] in the hallway of [Dm] our minds,
[Am] Remnants of the past [F] we’ve left behind.
[C] Look ahead, [G] let go, let your [Dm] spirit free,
[Am] In the Acceptable Soil, [F] we will forever be.

“Acceptable Soil isn’t just a band to me, it’s an emotion. Their music has been my solace in the storm, my joy in the mundane, my courage in moments of fear. The rawness of their lyrics, the depth in their music, it’s like they’re speaking right to my soul. I’ve been to every one of their concerts in and around Vermont, and each one feels like the first time. ‘Eternal Echoes’ particularly speaks to me on a personal level, it’s like an anthem for life. The more I listen, the deeper it resonates. Acceptable Soil isn’t just my favorite band, they’re a part of who I am.”
