Dark Metal Ensemble ATER Unveil Music Video For New Single "Sleep", Announce Forthcoming Album 'Everlasting'
Dark metal ensemble ATER present "Sleep," a haunting and heavy romantic ballad. The new single goes beyond ATER's exploration of shadowy brutality, revealing a softer side and a more emotional arrangement. "Sleep" is the first taste of the band's upcoming full length offering, Everlasting. The album is scheduled to arrive on January 29, 2027, via Torque Records.
ATER’s frontman Fernando Bühring comments: "This is a very different release for us, and I’m sure most of our listeners will be surprised. I have been exploring and expanding the musical boundaries of ATER, and this song is an expression of that. Freedom. Freedom to express myself. We shot the music video with a small team and it was directed by our drummer Vincent Zbinden. ‘Sleep’ is a very personal song and if you asked me months ago, I would never write something like that. But I did, and it represents well this new facet of sound we developed recently creating this new album."
With a slow and considered pace, ATER deliver a ferocious heaviness interspersed with lingering moments of serene clean tones that carve out a dreamy atmosphere. Fernando Bühring's intimate clean vocals are befitting of a gothic romance, gentle and passionate while surrounded by an eerie gloom.
