Modern metalcore band ATLAS release new single 'Veli'
Modern metalcore quintet ATLAS have released a video for their new single 'Veli' via Long Branch Records. Exploring the relationship between man and nature, 'Veli' takes the listener on a ride through face-melting riffs, mesmerising rhythms and choir-like Finnish ''joiku'' singing.

'Veli' is the first of a trilogy of songs that ATLAS will release in 2019. The music video is also part of a bigger concept, continuing the story of 2018's 'Pareidolia'.
ATLAS will appear at Euroblast Festival in Cologne, Germany in September.
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.
