With a fresh lineup and a new musical direction, London, ON’s ATRIA have been baring their knuckles and punching down the concrete walls in all directions by touring all across Ontario this past summer and they have no plans on stopping with their latest announcement of shows this coming October and November, which includes opening support for death metal titans Katakysm in Kingston, ON alongside Sovereign Council and Pound of Flesh.
Show Dates:
Oct 27 – Owen Sound, ON – The Harb
Oct 28 – Guelph, ON – Red Payaya – Kronik Halloween Bash w/ We Are Human, LoversTeeth
Nov 9 – Kingston, ON – The Broom Factory w/ Kataklysm, Sovereign Council, Pound of Flesh
To get fans pumped for their upcoming show dates and for those who have yet to check out their latest EP “Ground Zero” released this past August, ATRIA is sharing their new music video for the title track, which is about the moment that you first pray to God and realize that there will never be an answer.
Vocalist Tom Emmans explains the track and video further:
“The video was filmed at a place called Light is Art by Joe Lyko from Dark Moon Productions. The song is about the first time you pray and realize that no one is going to answer. Joe captured how terrifying that can be with the lighting by playing off of our image, specifically the contacts. We tried to capture the fear of losing God. We tried to make the scariest video that anyone will see this year.”
Watch the video via its premiere on the Spaceuntravel YouTube channel at – https://youtu.be/heQXWicH2-g
Atria’s new EP “Ground Zero” gets very personal to exorcise the darkness of the mind, the frustrations of life, and battling your inner demons. Led lyrically by vocalist Tom Emmans, the EP is his personal outlet to express his observations of the world. He explains further:
“I find myself in a world that I barely believe in, I try to be hopeful when I can but at the end of the day, we’re all just a little broken. I am expressing the broken side so I can be healthy when I walk off stage. It’s therapeutic and cathartic, but it’s really hard. It comes from a real place and it’s not always fun. Musically, for this record, it’s definitely gotten more aggressive, we always wanted to blend a lot of melodies and an anthemic chorus’ with brutality. I feel like the fans will agree that on this new one, we’ve gotten much better at doing that.”
Teaming up once again with producer Jon Howard (Threat Signal), and a new lineup that features Jerad Sterling (Tortured Saint) on drums, Brody King on lead guitar, and bassist Jake Fortney to join founding members vocalist Tom Emmans (Odium, Deathpoint, Choices, Scaithe) and guitarist Tim Ross, “Ground Zero” is an anthemic five track jolt of crushing infectious metalcore.
From its award-winning single “Antiheroes” (“Best Metal”- 2023 Forest City London, ON Music Awards) that captivates with its riffs and simply impossible-to-forget chorus, it sinks in and does not let go as you flow from each track to the next and let the music guide to the messages the band is expressing. “Antiheroes” is about losing faith in government and media, “Dysmorphia” is about body dysmorphia and the way the media will sell you a dream that will never come true, to “Just a Number”, a song about knowing how hard you work every day and feeling you’re nothing more than a cog in a machine and it’s all pointless, to EP closer “The Brightest Lights’, a lullaby to an unborn dead child.
Recommended for fans of Avatar, Slipknot, Mudvayne, Soilwork, and Killswitch Engage, ATRIA‘s second EP “Ground Zero” was released on August 18, 2023 and is available on https://atriaofficial.bandcamp.com and Spotify.

Forest City London, ON Music Awards – Best Metal Band – 2023
“I absolutely loved Atria’s last EP, ‘A New World Order’, so I was more than pleased to be able to sample another installment from them, and that pleasure turned to excitement once I started to listen to the music on show. ‘Ground Zero’ is a much heavier beast than its predecessor, but the band has still managed to make their brutal sound contemporary and melodic which is the main reason I like them so much – even when they’re flat out and bludgeoning your senses, they still make time for some moments which are seriously catchy such as on ‘AnitHeroes’ and ‘Just A Number’… I must give an extra shout out to vocalist Tom Emmans who has seriously delivered on ‘GroundZero’, enhancing their reputation even more – the last song on the EP, ‘Bright Lights’, just says everything about how good he really is. Another great record from a cool set of Canadians. 9/10” – Powerplay Magazine (Ground Zero 2023)
“Metal powerhouse Atria are back with their compelling EP, Ground Zero. With a fresh lineup and a bold new direction, the band dives deep into personal struggles and battles against inner demons… Teamed up with producer Jon Howard (Threat Signal) and a revamped lineup, Ground Zero is promised to be a five-track burst of infectious metalcore. For fans of Avatar, Slipknot, and Killswitch Engage, Atria’s new EP is for you.” – Metal Insider (Ground Zero 2023)
“Four of them are mind blowing and aggressive, coming along incredibly groovy yet pushing with often djent-driven rhythm patterns. While the riffs are dark and mighty, the lead guitar adds brighter, melodic parts. Tom’s growls are brutal, expressing the frustration in life and the anger towards the world we live in, but he also manages to switch effortlessly into clean singing during the often catchy choruses. Besides those prominent elements, there’s a lot happening in the background that gives their music an anthemic sound, brought to bear by the well-balanced mixing.” – The Prog Space (Ground Zero 2023)
“Ground Zero contains a lot of pent up rage, sadness, and other negative emotions which is clearly aimed at the writer(s). But it also projects the same types of rage and emotions towards the world we reside in, in 2022/23. Coming from a place that seems to be a bit more deep down and to the core than the groups last venture, it’s never going to be all laughs and good times. That is on full display for listeners to take in. Honest, real, and relatable content are the words we’d use to describe this EP at the very the least… Atria have managed to borrow all the good bits from the best parts of metal and worked them in their favor plus more. Canada is unrelenting right now in the metal music community which means you almost need to stand out. Atria don’t seem to be worried and are only proving that with Ground Zero.” – Noizze UK (Ground Zero 2023)
“The production is perfect, the musicianship is on point, the songs don’t outstay their welcome, and while it’s familiar, it also feels fresh and current. I’m not sure if I’ll get to review 10 releases this year, but if I do, this is going to be right up there in my top 10. Well done gents. You’ve pretty much floored me, but in the best way possible. ” – Ever-Metal (Ground Zero 2023)
“ATRIA have drawn references to the likes of SLIPKNOT, MUDVAYNE and KILLSWITCH ENGAGE with their sound and certainly across Ground Zero there were moments we could only concur yet the outstanding EP has an individuality and singular character which is unmissable, a uniqueness we cannot wait to see further blossom within the band and their already keenly anticipated future offerings.” – The RingMaster Review (Ground Zero 2023)
“Closing with “The Brightest Lights” they change pace and mood in a wonderful way, as it’s performed only with keys and clean vocals, and shows a different emotional side of their versatile work. Clearly a band to keep an eye (and ear) on!” – Mostly-Metal (Ground Zero 2023)

Forest City London, ON Music Awards – Best Metal Band – 2023
“Atria are from Ontario, Canada, and ‘New World Nightmare’ is their debut EP and what a little gem it is… Atria were a very nice surprise this month and are now band I will be looking out for in the future, because a full album of material this good will be very special. 9/10 – Power Play Magazine UK
“As this is the bands first outing, it is a strong start. I can see them being part of a regular playlist of mine as they are the exact kind of band I listen to. Metalcore is a very selective genre when it comes to what is involved, with bands drifting away from it every day. Atria have found the spot they want and are already planting their feet into the ground of the Canadian metalcore scene. I can see these guys playing a huge festival in the near future.” – Canadian Beats
“Citing Tool, Slipknot and Lamb of God as primary influencers, Canadian rookies Atria get the blood rushing on their inaugural EP. Despite inhabiting that familiar sonic sphere, it’s how they mystically stitch melodic passages with headbanging sequences that elevate them above the chaff. Scrumptious sonic trimmings are merely icing on the industrial cake. Yet at only four songs this searing thunderbolt of heavy metal domination serves mostly as a down payment on future excellence. Mosh on.” – Music Connection
“this is definitely a band to keep an eye out for when they release a full-length.” – Metal Temple
“A Canadian act willing to fuse together elements of melodic death and modern metal to pummel your senses, Atria unleash a fierce and engaging debut four-song EP with New World Nightmare.” – Dead Rhetoric
“The fact is that Atria, apart from all influences and using all influences, delivers a nice calling card with New World NIghtmare that we can do with for the time being. However, it is a business card that is neatly stored until further notice. I’m sold.” – Rock Portaal

Every musical release starts from a point of ground zero, and with a fresh lineup change along with a new musical direction, London, ON’s ATRIA are building on their second EP to take them to the next level.
Set to be unleashed this coming August 2023, their sophomore effort “Ground Zero” follows their 2018 debut “New World Nightmare”. Their new lineup features Jerad Sterling (Tortured Saint) on drums, Brody King on lead guitar, and bassist Joe Mullen to join founding members vocalist Tom Emmans (Odium, Deathpoint, Choices, Scaithe) and guitarist Tim Ross. Once again ATRIA teamed up with producer Jon Howard (Threat Signal) to help them craft their signature anthemic metal sound. Tom Emmans explains further.
“We’ve definitely gotten more aggressive, we always wanted to blend a lot of melody and anthemic chorus’ with brutality. I feel like the fans will agree that on this new one, we’ve gotten much better at doing that. Lyrically, there’s a lot of anger towards not only myself but the world we live in. I try to be hopeful, but I also try to dig into what’s making me angry. It’s therapeutic and cathartic, but it’s really hard. It comes from a real place and it’s not always fun. We hope when fans hear “Ground Zero” from beginning to end, they feel as if they are being exorcised. from the frustration of life.”
The EP also features their 2022 hit single “Antiheroes”, which garnered the band a recent “Best Metal” trophy from the 2023 Forest City London, ON Music Awards. Blasting right from the get-go with a tinge of Slipknot and In Flames groove, the track is about losing faith in government and media.
“In 2022, I had seen the world completely fall apart, I had seen division, I had seen lies and hatred coming from both sides of the political spectrum. I wondered to myself how can all these people in one world be so divided? It was enough for any of us to question humanity, government, religion, and ourselves. This is the anthem that came out of it.” adds Emmans.
The music video for “Antiheroes” filmed by Joe Lyko of Dark Moon Productions can be viewed at https://youtu.be/q6tLwvJH6fc
and available on Spotify – https://spoti.fi/43gSnJj
Performing heavy, yet catchy music, ATRIA has already shared the stage with The Agonist, Goatwhore, The Casualties, and Threat Signal, among many more and plans to be touring Eastern Canada later this year in support of the new record.
Recommended for fans of Mudvayne, Soilwork, and Killswitch Engage, ATRIA‘s second EP “Ground Zero” is due out on August 18, 2023, and is available for pre-order at https://atriaofficial.bandcamp.com.

============================================================
The EP as a whole:
There’s a lot of anger towards not only myself but the world we live in. I try to be hopeful, but I also try to dig into what’s making me angry. It’s therapeutic, cathartic, but it’s really hard. It comes from a real place and it’s not always fun.
Track By Track explained:
1. Ground Zero is the moment that you first pray to God and realize that there will never be an answer.
2. Antiheroes is about losing faith in the government and media.
3. Dysmorphia is about body dysmorphia and the way the media will sell you a dream that will never come true.
4. Just a Number is about knowing how hard you work every day, you’re nothing more than a cog in a machine and it’s all pointless.
5. The Brightest Lights is a lullaby to my unborn dead child.
