News from THE ATLAS MOTH…

The band's latest full-length “A Glorified Piece of Blue Sky” has been praised endlessly since its release in October – the first of many releases via the Candlelight/Battle Kommand alliance – and has appeared on countless year-end best-of lists.

“…executed in ambitious widescreen, shoehorning monolithic (but never boring) post-metal piledrivers between the shards of tormented mayhem” – Decibel Magazine; #19 on the Top 40 of 2009

“Muscular and riffy doom/sludge gives way to psychedelic blues and ambient passages before the clouds disappear and melodicism prevails. This is epic stuff, people. Get familiar.” – Brooklynvegan.com; #9 on the Top 20 of 2009

“People refer to Atlas Moth as a sludge or stoner band. They're clearly wearing blinders/missing a lot.” – Stereogum.com; #27 on the Top 30 Best Metal Albums of 2009

“A Glorified Piece of Blue Sky” was released in October, the first of many releases to be released via the Candlelight/Battle Kommand alliance.
