The new Atari Teenage Riot album for the re-union in 2011!
In the late 90s Atari Teenage Riot (ATR) emerged out of the electronica genre to subvert all rules of
rock and techno music. The original concept was Alec Empire's and, when joined by Hanin Elias, Nic
Endo and Carl Crack on stage, the mixed race, mixed sex image of the band provoked people before
they even heard the music.
The seminal band was too radical in its views and statements and simply too loud and noisy to fit in neatly
inside any genre, with Hanin screaming about police violence and revolution, ATR opened many doors for
female artists to follow at the time. In 1996, Alec Empire teamed up with the Beastie Boys to negotiate
a label deal between Grand Royal and Digital Hardcore Recordings for North America. The album, “Burn Berlin
Burn" was born. Tours with Rage Against The Machine, Wu-Tang Clan and Beck swiftly followed. But with
the success came tension. Every musician has their own way of dealing with it, and ATR were extremely intense.
Very soon the thin line between reality and paranoia started to vanish. When John Peel asked ATR to
play Queen Elizabeth Hall in London in 1999, the band had just released their 3rd and best album, “60 Second
Wipe Out“, which was mixed with Andy Wallace (Nirvana's "Nevermind", Slayer). During the song
“Revolution Action“, kids stormed the stage and pandemonium descended on the capital. When the Berlin
quartet played their last show at the Big Day Out Festival, Australia in 2000 everyone was watching: The Red
Hot Chili Peppers, Nine Inch Nails, The Clash's Joe Strummer, Foo Fighters and Primal Scream on the side of
the stage. The band finally dissolved in the wake of MC Carl Crack’s death just days before September 11th
2001. Following on from the success of reunion shows in 2010, with new band member CX Kidtronik, ATR are
pleased to announce a brand new studio album due out on 8th August 2011 Their incendiary live show is not
to be missed, described by the NME as “…a cavalcade of forever-young yelps: a brilliantly nasty volley of universe-
shaping techno-metal.” The band will be touring worldwide throughout 2011.
