The Ataris have been known to produce melancholy, but strangely appealing lyrics and songs that the typical punk rocker just can't get enough of. Kris Roe's heartfelt and soulful singing keeps us begging for more and more, which they often produce on every album. Their current album "End is Forever" is possibly one of their best yet. With catchy tunes such as "You Need a Hug" and "If You Really Care To Know About It..", no band can go wrong. Now with their official spot on the Vans Warped Tour '01, I'm sure we'll be seeing and (hearing) even more of these guys. Also, catch their edited and rewritten version of "The Radio Still Sucks" that is featured on one of those snazzy IMAC commercials that you see everytime you turn the TV on. Check out the official Ataris website with totally new gear at www.theataris.com ! Keep the rad songs coming, boys.. and everyone be sure to add this highly anticipated album to your already large punk/emo collection.

Ok...This was my second Ataris cd.. this album is kick my fuckin ass.. it's great Another boring, lifeless piece of junk from a mediocre band. The only DECENT album they ever, and will ever release, was "Blue Skies..." That's a fact, jack. Another great disc from the Ataris. This is not a blue skies caliber cd but it is quite up there. The best part about this cd is the vocals. Kris is a great vocalist. So do yourself's a favor and check these guys out. i personally think this is better than blue skies or maybe equal to it but has anyone heard this song by them called pretty pathetic? cause it is what the title seguests. the ataris suck now. so long astoria brings shame to there old music and the movie they took the title from (the goonies) This is an great cd, kris has amazing lyrics that surpass the average emo band. Watch out for these guys in the future!! I aren't a big ataris fan I just loved the San Dimas song on Life In The Fat Lane so i brought this and it was alright. I don't listen to it much but it has some good songs on it. Love the J and Silent Bob quote and the Ice Cube lyrics oh and Teenage Riots a cool song which isn't whinny, which is the thing i hate about the ataris they are always whining about their lost love or some shit when you know its bullshit but thats what this emotional pop punk stuffs about huh. If your into that kinda thing this album should impress. I've never been a huge Ataris fan, but I do respect their work. They are very talented musicians, but their sound doesn't really do it for me. But, its hard to hate a band who writes every song about the evils of love. girls suck. rock on. |
