Atreyu Have a Major Surprise Planned For Fans
Band To Make Big Reveal on Facebook on Friday, Sept.5
Atreyu entered a brief period of dormancy in 2011 after having steadily risen to the top of the metalcore heap during the American metal Renaissance of the ’00s. To say that the inactivity is over is an understatement. The beast has risen. The dust has been shaken off. Atreyu are back and they are poised for big things through the rest of 2014 and beyond.
Atreyu ~ “BIG” Dan Jacobs – Guitar, Marc McKnight – Bass, Travis Miguel – Guitar, Brandon Saller – Drums/Vocals, Alex Varkatzas – Vocals ~ have a September 11 gig at Chain Reaction in their native Orange County, which sold out in less than a minute, and a much-heralded appearance at the 2014 edition of Aftershock on the horizon. They also have quite a surprise in store for fans this Friday, September 5.
Drummer/vocalist Brandon Saller has offered a hint of what’s to come, indicating that it is the fans that keep the Atreyu engines running at full throttle: “This is the rebirth of Atreyu. You have stood by us for countless years. This is for you. Thank you.”
Singer Alex Varkatzas added, “We can’t wait to share this with our fans and the world. We are revitalized!”
Don’t forget that the band will be part of Knotfest 2014 in October and also playing Soundwave XV in 2015 in Australia!
And here’s the band performing “Her Portrait In Black”just to get you in the mood for what’s to come!
Tune in Friday, September 5 at 9am PT/12pm ET to find out exactly what Atreyu have in store for fans and the metal world!
