ATHEIST BIO
Originally forming in the mid-1980s as the thrash metal band Oblivion, which later became R.A.V.A.G.E, ATHEIST emerged from Florida’s vibrant death/thrash scene. The band, consisting of founding members Kelly Shaefer (vocals/guitar), Steve Flynn (drums), Roger Patterson (bass), and Rand Burkey (guitar), recorded their debut album, Piece of Time, at the iconic Morrisound Studios in 1988. The album became a genre-defining release in the death metal world, hailed for its complexity and musicianship, setting ATHEIST apart from their peers.
ATHEIST’s follow-up album, Unquestionable Presence (1991), further solidified their reputation as innovators in the genre, combining technical prowess with progressive elements that pushed the boundaries of death metal. Unfortunately, during the height of their success, tragedy struck when bassist Roger Patterson died in a car accident. The band continued, bringing in Tony Choy, a former member of CYNIC, to replace Patterson. ATHEIST’s third album, Elements (1993), marked the band’s creative peak before disbanding shortly thereafter, but their influence on the technical death metal genre was already firmly established.
ATHEIST’s legacy continued to grow, inspiring bands like NECROPHAGIST, OBSCURA, and FALLUJAH. After a 17-year hiatus, the band returned in 2010 with Jupiter, reasserting their place in the metal world. In 2019, ATHEIST reformed with a new lineup. Alongside founding member and vocalist Kelly Shaefer, Yoav Ruiz-Feingold (Bass), Alex Haddad (Guitar), Jerry Witunsky (Guitar) and Dylan Marks (Drums) launched successful tours in South America, North America, and Europe.
Atheist’s entire discography was reissued by Nuclear Blast Records in 2023, and the band continues to tour and develop new material, maintaining their standing as pioneers and architects of the technical death metal genre.

About Gig Gage
Gig Gage revolutionises live music experiences by removing financial risks for tour promoters and bringing bands to fans in smaller markets. By allowing fans to directly influence tour stops through our Gig Bonds system, we facilitate more live gigs, closer to home. Our mission is to bridge the gap between bands and their passionate fans, ensuring every supporter has the chance to see live performances in their locality.
How Does Gig Gage Work?
We bring your favourite bands to your hometown by empowering fans in smaller market cities and making live concerts a reality. With Gig Gage, you can enjoy live performances without travelling far, all while directly influencing tour stops through our unique Gig Gage system.
When a new Gig Gage campaign launches for your city, it's your chance to make it happen! Check our website for upcoming campaigns and rally your friends to join in.
This is your chance to make the gig a reality! By purchasing a Gig Bond, priced the same as a ticket, you can help the Gig Gage fill up. If enough fans do the same before the deadline the gig is confirmed!
Once the Gig Gage reaches its goal, your Gig Bond automatically converts into a concert ticket. You'll receive your ticket directly through the venue's ticketing agent.
If a campaign doesn't meet its goal, fans receive a full refund or exclusive merchandise from the band, ensuring no one walks away empty-handed. *Excluding transaction fees
