Our Spotlight Band is Atomic Symphony from Switzerland

December 31, 2015

For our Spotlight Band we would like to introduce you to a great symphonic/progressive metal band, Atomic Symphony from Switzerland. They have released their debut album Redemption this year and have been garnering a lot of attention for their progressive metal that takes you on a symphonic journey. The self produced album contains 9 attention grabbing tracks that highlight their musical prowess. One of my favorite tracks is the hauntingly beautiful Face The Evil or the explosive Shattered. You can’t help but feel the intensity that their music brings out. Walk Through Fire and Pain is one to have on repeat!
