Their first album as the ATKINS MAY PROJECT was to emerge in 2011 under the title of 'Serpents Kiss' which received excellent critical acclaim. So much so they decided to release their sophamore album just a year later in 2012, the album 'Valley of Shadows' which magazines and fans recieved with a wealth of praise. Their third album 'Empire of Destruction' was released in 2014 once again to an excellent favourable response.
2015 saw the record company, Gonzo at the time', decide to release 'Anthology' a collection of some of the epic songs from previous albums.
