ATREYU: New 'Congregation' Webisode Released

October 8, 2009

Orange County, California's ATREYU has released another webisode leading up to the release of the band's new album, "Congregation of the Damned".
In the latest clip, which can be viewed below, bassist Marc McKnight talks about the "energy and vibe" that ATREYU rediscovered while recording the CD to create "a perfect record," while guitarist Travis Miguel sums up "Congregation of the Damned" in one word: "huge."

ATREYU filmed a video last month for "Storm to Pass", the first single from "Congregation of the Damned". The song is currently streaming on the group's MySpace page along with the new cut "Stop! Before It's Too Late and We've Destroyed it All".

The video for "Storm to Pass" was shot September 22-23 in the desert near Palm Springs, California and was directed by Sean Stiegemeier, who has worked with the band on clips for "Falling Down", "Doomsday", "The Crimson" and "Lip Gloss and Black".

The "Storm to Pass" video is scheduled to debut the week of October 12.

A video game on ATREYU's web site will premiere on October 13 and will give fans a sneak preview of the track Gallows". In the game, which was influenced by George Romero's classic movie "Night of the Living Dead", players battle a variety of zombies — some of whom resemble powerful political figures — in an attempt to stay alive. The third in a series of ATREYU games was designed by Jason Oda, who has also a designed hit game for FALL OUT BOY and conceived the classic "Dropkick the Faint".
