ATLAS close single trilogy with new single / video 'Uni'

ATLAS have released the third and final part of their single trilogy called 'Uni'.

The track also includes a video which concludes the story told by previous singles 'Veli' and 'Aika'. Watch it here: https://youtu.be/vjH-qKggLDg

’Uni’ pummels the listener with violent riffs, mechanical percussion, soaring melodies and luscious soundscapes. The song explores the duality between the primitive and modern aspects of humans and culture. The music video continues the story of Veli' and 'Aika' with introspective visuals that enhance the theme of duality throughout the song. All three releases have Finnish names: ’Veli’ (brother), ’Aika’ (time) and ’Uni’ (dream), and they tie together both lyrically and thematically.

Like all ATLAS music videos, ‘Uni’ is self-produced by the band from writing and shooting to VFX and editing.

‘Uni’ is the final release from ATLAS in 2019 via Long Branch Records, a label at the cutting edge of modern metal. 

Guitarist Tuomas Kurikka commented: ‘’This is one of the heaviest but also the most pop-influenced songs we’ve ever written and there’s a real feeling of tension and danger from the first snare hit to the last note. Writing this song and making the video was a pleasure and it’s a great way to end this trilogy.’’

ATLAS are a five-piece modern metalcore band from Nokia, Finland labelling themselves as 'Northcore'. The quintet bring together influences of deathcore, nu-metal, and traditional Finnish music, mixing hard-hitting riffs with catchy melodies and immersive soundscapes that draw inspiration from the gloom of the north. Their releases include 2016 EP Northern Lights, 2018 singles 'Birthright' and 'The Catalyst' and 2018 debut full-length Primitive.

The band have played throughout Europe with the likes of Monuments, Miss May I, Vola, Kadinja, Adept, Eskimo Callboy, One Morning Left and We Butter The Bread With Butter. Debut album Primitive climbed the Finnish album charts to number six and came to life on a European tour with Monuments, receiving praise from fans and critics alike.
