About

Atheist is an American death metal band from Sarasota, Florida, formed in 1987.

The band's original lineup consisted of vocalist and rhythm guitarist Kelly Shaefer, lead guitarist Rand Burkey, bassist Roger Patterson and drummer Steve Flynn. The band is known for its technical playing style. Its 1991 album Unquestionable Presence is regarded as a landmark of technical death metal. The band gained a following largely within its own genre. After disbanding in 1994, the group reformed in 2006 and has since released one studio album and a live DVD.

Atheist est un groupe de death metal technique américain, originaire de Sarasota, en Floride. Leur style musical, hautement technique, est un mélange entre des riffs brutaux et des arrangements latins, un peu dans l'esprit de l'album culte de Cynic, Focus. Ils font partie d'une vague de groupes de metal de plus en plus technique comme Watchtower, Sadus, Death, Coroner, et Cynic.
