THE ATLAS MOTH Premiere Cover of HOORAY FOR EARTH Song “Black Trees” Online; Announce SXSW Schedule

The Atlas Moth have become one of the most talked about bands in the American metal scene on the heels of their skull-jarring opus ‘An Ache For The Distance,’ which was released last year via Profound Lore Records. Known for pushing the boundaries of metal and experimenting with outside influences, the Chicago band recently covered “Black Trees” by experimental/synth rock band Hooray For Earth. The track was premiered today HERE.
