Atomship

Originally called Watership Down, southern Mississippi alternative metal trio Atomship stand out from others in the genre with a unique blend of wistful balladry, complex time signatures, and ferocious hard rock. Comprised of vocalist Joey Culver, guitar player Nathan Slade, and drummer Chad Kent, the group released its explosive debut, The Crash of 47 (a reference to the year attributed to the alleged UFO crash in Roswell, NM), on Wind Up Records in May of 2004.
