ATHEIST To Film Last-Ever Show In New York City For Upcoming DVD

May 21, 2007

Reactivated seminal technical metal pioneers ATHEIST have announced plans to film their last-ever show for an upcoming DVD. The concert will take place in New York City on an as-yet-undetermined date.

ATHEIST will perform in Bucharest, Romania at The Live Metal Club on June 21. The band will also appear at this year's Hellfest in France on June 23 as well as Graspop Metal Meeting in Belgium on June 22.

In January 2006, frontman Kelly Shaefer reassembled much of what was widely considered ATHEIST's classic recording lineup (Shaefer, bassist Tony Choy, and drummer Steven Flynn) to perform a select number of one-off shows to celebrate the re-issue of their wildly-influential catalog (1988's "Piece of Time", 1993's "Elements", and the 1991's legendary "Unquestionable Presence"). Among those shows were performances at such legendary festivals such as Germany's Wacken Open Air, Norway's Hole In The Sky, Italy's Evolution, England's Bloodstock Open Air, and the Los Angeles' Murderfest.
