APOTHEUS continue to explore its storytelling universe with its follow-up to the 2019’s critically acclaimed album The Far Star.
New Album “Ergo Atlas” is a direct sequel, that continues to evolve the band’s sound.
Experimenting with new musical techniques and incorporating a variety of influences, their sound roars with passion and dedication, enveloped with a thick mantle of an epic sci-fi story.
The album is set millions of years after “The Far Star” mission took place, artificial intelligence has come up with an ingenious plan that puts life in the Universe at risk.
Ergo Atlas is the second volume of the saga, which started in 2019 and continues in 2023, inspired by the famous science fiction writer Issac Asimov. Apotheus introduces new atmospheres and emotions in the nine chapters of the new album, in a roller coaster of melodies, messages, and intrigues that will be revealed along with the musical and literary work.
The future is coming, there is no stopping it. Embrace and shape it or fall behind. Apotheus is breaking new insights into a possible branch of humanity direction with their coming release Ergo Atlas, and the first single releases today, with a full Music Video below!

Lead Explorer Miguel comments: “Shape and Geometry” ruthlessly kicks off Ergo Atlas and tells the story of the ascension of an all-powerful being called GODS. With a piercing and rhythmic main riff, the music drives forward, capturing the fear and desperation of those caught in God’s wake.
As the song draws to a close, it becomes more contemplative and emotional, describing the aftermath of God’s ascension and the impact it has on the whole galaxy. We’re firm believers this song captures the full might of GODS. Prepare to be crushed!
