4.0 out of 5 stars not for contemporary "techno" fans, July 12, 2002

ATR has distanced themselves from the typical techno scene, wanting to break all ties with the term "techno". Take an anarchist punk band of the 70's, beef it up with 200 BPM samples and beats and add some random noise and effects and you have Atari Teenage Riot. however, despite their lack of talent in lyrics, ATR are masters of their own electronic hybrid called "digital hardcore". This album will really get you moving, and the expierimental style comes off very well. While the lyrics come off as self rightous, the music is intense and a great display of the genre.

Atari Teenage Riot is the best thing since pacifiers at a rave. This album is more fine-tuned to their style, yet doesn't leave their roots untouched. Every song is worth listening to, and most of them will keep you throbbing for more.
Digital Hardcore Recordings is the only label for me!

If you havent heard an ATR record before it is a challenge to describe it to you! So I won't bother. All you need to know is that they are very loud!! Yeeehah!! But their is a subtely and artistry to Alec Empires's music that works through much of his revolutionary little boy bored nonsense, which often gets in the way of a very important message of resistance in his music. You don't have to be a hedonist to enjoy DHR music and I dont think it helps either! Hedonistic poeple are often like drug addicts, their boring, and ATR are anything but!!!
Though when you get to the point of white noise, you lose your audience, and what is the point of agit-prop when nobody is listening...??
