May 21, 2014, Chicago - The Atlas Moth premiere "City of Light," a new song from the band's upcoming album The Old Believer (June 10, Profound Lore), today via Metal Sucks (http://www.metalsucks.net/2014/05/21/exclusive-track-premiere-atlas-moths-city-light/).

Alternative Press, in a four-star review of the new album, said the band "have taken definite and deliberate steps to flesh out their wall of sound on album No. 3, accentuating their sludge roots with waves of psychedelic counterpoint." Pitchfork, in a track review, said "'Collider' is one of the group's tightest, most composed songs yet."

The Chicago-based band recently announced that they will be opening for Boris on several summer dates:

July 31 Atlanta, GA Terminal West

August 1 Carrboro, NC Cat's Cradle

August 2 Washington, DC 930 Club

August 3 New York, NY Bowery Ballroom

August 5 Boston, MA Paradise

August 7 Toronto, ON Lee's Palace

August 8 Buffalo, NY Traif

August 9 Detroit, MI Magic Stick

August 10 Chicago, IL Bottom Lounge

August 11 Milwaukee, WI Turner Hall

August 12 Minneapolis, MN Triple Rock Social Club

The Atlas Moth have offered fans an early listen to two other songs: "Sacred Vine" via Alternative Press (http://www.altpress.com/features/entry/the_atlas_moth_sacred_vine_song_premiere) and "Collider" via Pitchfork (http://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/16833-the-atlas-moth-collider/). Pitchfork will be streaming The Old Believer in its entirety a week prior to release.
