Spinefarm

Atreyu is a five-piece metalcore band from Orange County, California, United States. Formed in 1998, the band consists of vocalist Brandon Saller, guitarists Dan Jacobs and Travis Miguel, bassist Marc McKnight and drummer Kyle Rosa. Originally named "Retribution," they changed their name to Atreyu after discovering another band with the same name. Inspired by the character from The Neverending Story, Atreyu has become known for their powerful sound and energetic performances.

Spinefarm is a Finnish record label that was founded in 1990 by Riku Pääkkönen. Originally starting as a mailorder and distribution company for rock and metal releases, Spinefarm quickly expanded to release albums from Finnish metal bands. In 2002, Spinefarm became part of Universal Music when Universal Music Oy became the majority shareholder of Spin-Farm Oy, the record company that runs Spinefarm. In 2005, Universal bought the entire company and merged it with Universal Music Oy on December 31st, 2014.

Although founder Riku Pääkkönen left the company in 2011, he continued working on [l532289], a sub-label of Spinefarm. With two regional offices outside of Finland - Spinefarm UK in London and Spinefarm US in New York - they cover other territories through Caroline/Universal Music or local distribution partners.

Known for their expertise in distribution, Spinefarm has been credited under their name for various releases. With their rich history and strong ties to the metal music scene, Spinefarm remains an influential force within the industry.

The Beautiful Dark Of Life is the ninth studio album from Atreyu, and their most ambitious project ever. Unfurled throughout the year as a series of three EPs, culminating in a surprise album release, Atreyu are taking their audience on a journey through ‘the seasons of life’ and the rollercoaster of human existence.

With songs that speak openly and honestly about anxiety, depression, self-belief, love and identity, ‘The Beautiful Dark Of Life’ represents Atreyu’s most universal and important songwriting to date. Through the expression of deeply personal feelings and emotions, Atreyu are giving a voice to a global audience dealing with the very same issues that the band are laying bare, and who are seeking solace, empathy, escapism and empowerment through music. 

With sonics that touch every corner of the heavy music sphere - from metal to punk and alternative, via 1980s classic rock and with shades of industrial, hip-hop and unashamed pop - The Beautiful Dark Of Life is an album that showcases the very best of Atreyu and every influence that guides them, speaking more than ever to a generation of music fans who care little for the traditional constraints of genre.

For fans of Bullet For My Valentine, Trivium, Killswitch Engage.
