Franceâs Atomic Trip released their third album this past October and coming up this March 2023, they will have it on vinyl available for purchase. Doomy and sludgy, âStrike #3â is a breath of sweet smoke and a head full of fuzz. Comprised of two lengthy tracks âBomb #5â and âBomb #6â, prepare for heavy doses of electric riffs. The band shares their excitement:
âWe are so proud of our third album. We think that we have pushed all barriers to keep our motto: less is more. With a few riffs, we have made a progressive psychedelic doom masterpiece. Here the most simple becomes the most complex and every single note weighs a ton. A ton of harmonics, of resonance, of feedback. When we first played those tracks live, we were not confident and hesitated, but people reacted so well! From dark basements to the bigger stages on metal festivals, it has always been a total blast, from the top to the final drum hit. To describe Strike #3 in one sentence: like it or loathe it, you cannot ignore it.â
Fans familiar with Atomic Trip will not be disappointed in âStrike #3â; the sequel of âStrike #2â and Strike #1, it is even more crushing, and even more âin your faceâ than its predecessors. âBomb #5â is full of finesse and heaviness, a fuzz apocalypse, and a cavalcade of mad drumming. âBomb #6â interjects with penetrating feedback and toms rolls, and psychedelic heaviness. The last two last leaden minutes of it will completely twist your brain.
The album was mixed and mastered by Alexandre Borel and the album artwork was done by Jean-Luc Navette. Best served with a couple of brews and a joint, Atomic Trip is providing the soundtrack for a hazy evening and a cosmic trip so sit back and relax. They are recommended for fans of Conan, Bongripper, and Electric Wizard.

About: The dope factory has exploded, inhale the smoke, and prepare to trip. First, the violent blast of fuzz hits you in the face, then you board for a journey into blurry and muzzy dreams. Plug your darkest fuzz, light your joint, uncap your booze and feel the raw power of doom. Weâre all atomic zombies trippinâ on slow riffs.

“These DOOM warlords have created the Instrumental Doom album of the year entitled Strike #1. Over the course of 40 minutes, this band proves that they canât be fucked with when it comes to creating riffs that kill on contact. What I love about this record is how they are able to manifest such dynamic songs without using vocals. ATOMIC TRIPâs tunes are the perfect soundscape for your mind to run wild in a HEAVY NEVER-NEVER-LAND!” – CVLT NATION â Instrumental Doom album of 2017
â
“Each resonating chord is literally hammered out and left ringing over a bed of resonating bass and this is a pure and simple celebration of the utter power of the riff.” – MORE FUZZ
â
“These gargantuan sized riffs from Atomic Trip will hit you with hypnotic waves of radiation haze, while burying you in a mushroom cloud of fallout and smoke.” – SUPER DANK METAL JAMS
â
“Each, drawn out chord, is encapsulated with a veil of heaving discordance as hypnotic as it is painful, self flagellation by sledgehammer. Worship at the Sepulchre of doom!” – THE SHRIEKS FROM BELOW
â
“Atomic Trip creates soundscapes that are heavy and powerful as mountain massifs. It is a sense of desolation and at the same time magnificent and warm. Then Atomic Trip opens up completely new audio worlds far beyond the reality. The music is bigger than everything.” – SLAVESTATE
â
“Atomic Trip does not go below 8 on the Richter scale. Even with the earplugs, I thought my ears would fall like two pieces of plaster.” – FEEDBACK MUSIC
â
“Here is a raw, cryptic, deviant doom, where everything is played on the atmosphere. This is the secret little corner, where everything is only vibration, introspection, where the notes haunt the depths of the soul.” – THE DARK LODGE
