Vergangenes Jahr veröffentlichten Thy Art Is Murder ihr aktuelles Album „Human Target“ (Albumreview). Darauf findet sich auch der Track „Atonement“ zu dem die Band nun ein Drum Playthrough teilt. Das ist mittlerweile das dritte Video dieser Art: Es gab bereits ein Gitarren Playthrough zu „Make America Hate Again“ und ein weiteres Drum Playthrough zum Titelsong. Schlagzeuger Jesse Beahler sagt über den Beitrag zu „Atonement“:
„From the first time I heard the demo, I knew ‚Atonement‘ was going to be one of my favorite tracks from the new record. I loved the dark vibes and the heavy breakdown that closes the song. The playthrough version we have recorded here has a bit more extreme double bass 16th notes to increase the intensity drum wise. Often I will have an idea in the studio while recording but, to better serve the song, vocals, or the riff, we will often change drum parts around. Recording a drum playthrough gave me an opportunity to redo some parts with the drums as the focus. I’m happy to present one of the most challenging and rewarding tracks I’ve ever worked on.“
