Atlam still performs in weddings and many other music occasions. However, its association with rock music hindered its activity in weddings.

To strengthen their presence they appointed [[Ralph Camilleri]] as their manager.

	In parallel with the ''Rock Mass'', the band started working on their rock opera Victims.

	Parts of the rock opera were played in many cultural activities but never performed completely. The opera was recorded in a home ~~build~~ studio with a four track recorder but due to the many overdubs that had to do, the final product was of poor quality. At one time, the opera was almost agreed to be performed under the auspice of [[Caritas]] but the band did not reach an agreement since Caritas stressed to change the name of the opera which the band did not agree.
