Founded in 1996, AtmOsfear is an independent Progressive-Metal-Project in which every member is able to fulfill his very own demands on music. The character and style of AtmOsfear could not better be focused than in the first 3-track release in 1997, simply named “AtmOsfear”: Premium class independent progressive Metal with a perfect rhythm section and a powerful & highly melodic voice, combined with screaming guitars and virtuous, atmospheric keyboards. From then on the bands aim was to perform their 2 1/2 hour repertoire in every location and club, playing with highly reputabled bands like POVERTY..S NO CRIME, CHARISMA (IVANHOE),VANDEN PLAS, HEADWAY FESTIVAL (with PAIN OF SALVATION, Freak Kitchen, Bumblefoot, Sun Caged, Loch Vostock, etc.) and EVERGREY. The tremendous response was topped with the release of the 2nd CD "Inside the Atmosphere" in 2003. The new Album “Zenith” is the next big step in melody linings and hooklines and shows the evolving progress of AtmOsfear creating fascinating soundscapes to their perfection. It is the first production with the new drummer Tim Schnabel replacing Olaf Sorgenfrei, who left the band in July 2008.
