About

The ATTIKA story

Forged in the fires of Winston-Salem, North Carolina in 1983, ATTIKA emerged during the golden age of American heavy metal. At a time when the US metal underground was exploding with raw energy and unbridled ambition, ATTIKA carved their own path with a sound that blended European power metal melody with American aggression and grit.

Their self-titled debut album, originally released in 1988, became a sought-after collector's item and underground classic. The second album "When Heroes Fall," recorded in 1992, was shelved for decades before finally seeing the light of day with a proper release in 2019 — proving that great metal never dies, it just waits for the right moment to strike.

The band returned to the stage with blistering performances at Up The Hammers in Athens (2018) and Headbangers Open Air in Germany (2019), reminding the world that ATTIKA's flame had never been extinguished. In 2021, they released "Metal Lands" — eleven tracks of molten, thundering power metal that proved the fire burns hotter than ever.

Four decades in. The metal endures. The fire never dies.
