Attalus then went on to release two independent full lengths; "Post Tenebras Lux" (2011) and "Gospel Hymns, Vol. 1" (2013). The latter showcased a completely different sound of their music and 100% of the proceeds from this album are going to 7 Billion Reasons (www.7billionreasons.org), a global non-profit organization that desires to help provide spiritual and physical support to orphans in Busia, Uganda. After just four months, Attalus sold over 1,000 copies of this record, allowing 7 Billion Reasons to raise more than $10,000 for the orphans in Uganda.

Over the course of two years, Attalus began writing a 16-song concept album entitled "Into the Sea.” Working with Mike Watts (As Cities Burn, As Tall As Lions) at Vudu Studio in Port Jefferson, NY, the band has been able to make this their most musically dynamic album to date. Being compared to bands such as La Dispute, Thrice and Brand New, this album is sure to make its mark.

"Into the Sea" will be released June 2. Pre-orders available now.
