About ATHENA XIX
Originating in 1991, ATHENA released their most successful album to date, A New Religion?, in 1998 – still recognised and appropriately rewarded as the best prog metal album of an Italian band ever. The original band members finally re-united in 2019 — after several line-up changes and a hiatus — writing the new album Everflow Part 1: Frames Of Humanity which will be released on October 25, 2024 via Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM). ATHENA XIX shake the stagnant contemporary power/prog metal scene to its foundations, pushing far beyond the boundaries of the genre.
