Gothenburg grunge band, Smash Atoms, have just announced a signing with the M-Theory Audio record label. With this news, they have shared a video for their new track, “Down.” It is presented as the lead track for their debut full-length album, planned for a Summer release this year. Head into the article below to watch the video and find out more.

“Smash Atoms are super excited to sign with M-Theory Audio for the worldwide release of our debut album. We are looking forward to continuing the development of our music and fanbase together with a serious label that understand today’s rock and metal scene,” says guitarist Martin Söderqvist.

“The first single, “Down,” is about being drained of your energy, surrounded by negativity and trying to break out of that pattern. The video was filmed by Rickard Croy Media on location at Östra Kyrkogården in Gothenburg, Sweden in the summer of 2023.”

While the influences are obvious, there is something charming, nostalgic and infectiously endearing about the group’s material, culminating in what will surface as a very strong album upon its planned summer release.

More from Smash Atoms:
Smash Atoms’ story actually originates back to 2012 when they formed, releasing one smashing demo and playing a handful of magical shows before U.S.-born singer Glen Gilbert stepped out and the remaining trio changed their name to The Torch with Martin now also handling vocals. The Torch recorded two albums, gaining national Swedish radio play and touring all over places like Scandinavia, Germany and Italy. But two years ago, Glen (The Story Behind, Hide The Knives) and the guys reconnected and decided to revert back to their former incarnation and give Smash Atoms another chance and here we are.
