[n]Atoma[/n] is the eleventh full-length studio album by Swedish melodic death metal band Dark Tranquillity. It was released on 4 November, 2016 through Century Media Records. Atoma is the band's first studio album with new bassist Anders Iwers, who replaced founding member Martin Henriksson (also the rhythm guitarist), after Henriksson left the band in early 2016 due to loss of passion for playing music. Two songs "The Absolute" and "Time Out of Place" were recorded during the making of this album, but were released on a bonus disc in the limited edition. These songs are softer, darker and more brooding with only clean singing, reminiscent of bands such as Katatonia and the later Opeth. Another song, "Reconstruction Time Again", was released as a Japanese edition bonus track. It is a nine-minute electro-industrial medley of some songs from Construct, specifically "State of Trust", "None Becoming", and "Uniformity".
Lyrics:
[Verse 1] I will not play along With things I find unfair I will not mount defenses Against unjust attacks This land was never given We built this on our own It's sanity dependent Whether we rise or fall [Pre-Chorus 1] Whether we rise or we fall One for the night, one for the uncontrolled [Chorus] Hold your feet to the ground To the end of our time for the rest of our lives Hold your head up high To the end of our time for the rest of our lives [Verse 2] Secretly I hope That nothing ever comes of this And you are not alone in wanting to come back To a place where it won't matter just what side you're on It's where our lives are branded What's underneath will overcome [Pre-Chorus 2] What's underneath will overcome One for the night, one for the uncontrolled [Chorus] Hold your feet to the ground To the end of our time for the rest of our lives Hold your head up high To the end of our time for the rest of our lives [Pre-Chorus 3] Now it's time to stand up tall One for the night, one for the uncontrolled [Chorus] Hold your feet to the ground To the end of our time for the rest of our lives Hold your head up high To the end of our time for the rest of our lives
