Calgary Post-Metal ATOMIS Showcases Their Progressive Rock Side w/ Video “Maelstrom” Off Upcoming “The Void Box Set” In Memory of Passing Drummer
Atomis, the avant-garde rock band known for their deeply immersive soundscapes is excited to announce the release of a comprehensive “The Void Box Set”, a tribute to our late drummer Nathan Navetto, which contains all the music they’ve ever written. They are ushering in this release by dropping a music video for the single “Maelstrom”, from the self-titled album, which they comment on:
“Recorded 10 years earlier, it makes sense to finish off the album with something familiar, taking the listener back to the beginning, creating a nice loop, and ending the album with a bang. This 9+ minute track has been called an album on its own and was previously the band’s only musical release for the last 14 years. It finally has an album to properly close out, as it was always intended.”
The upcoming “The Void Box Set” is a monumental release, featuring three CDs that showcase the evolution of Atomis‘ sound. From the polished debut album, which includes previously unheard tracks, to the experimental “Welcome to the Void” album—Nathan’s version that includes remixes and ambient compositions—the collection offers a deep dive into the band’s creative process.
Formed by Nathan Navetto and Taylor Brooks from Somastate, alongside Matt Langley of Pure City, Atomis set out to create music with “no holds barred”. Drawing inspiration from cinema, poetry, and nature, the band aimed to craft an enveloping experience that went beyond just sound. Their performances became legendary for their custom light shows, specially edited film backdrops, and exclusive screen-printed posters.
Recommended for fans of Neurosis, The Ocean, and Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Atomis’ introspective and ambitious music is sure to please fans of progressive music.
