 YOU ME AND THE ATOM BOMB Shake Up Format : CD and Download Catalogue # : HAUS084 Release Date : 19th June 2006 YOU ME AND THE ATOM BOMB was formed in Portsmouth in 2004 from the ashes of underground hardcore band JETS VS SHARKS. After releasing a demo and split CD on Cat'n'Cakey Records the band signed up with Household Name Records to release their first full-length album. These 14 tracks of driving melodic hardcore are in the style THE BROADWAYS, AVAIL, LEATHERFACE, HOT WATER MUSIC and the pop/punk sing along choruses of THE BOUNCING SOULS will see YOU ME AND THE ATOM BOMB swell their already solid underground fanbase. SHAKE UP was recorded with much in demand UK producer PETER MILES (The King Blues, Captain Everything!, Awoken) in April 2006 during a break on tour with rising DEEP ELM RECORDS band LATTERMAN, who were so blown away by the band that they even contributed backing vocals to the album. In October 2006 LATTERMAN will also be taking YOU ME AND THE ATOM BOMB to the USA on a tour that ends up at the massive and influential NO IDEA RECORDS "Gainesville Fest": the first UK band to play at the Fest in 3 years! "Following on from their 5 track demo and their split with the mighty Fuck With Fire. Tim (vocals, guitar), Hud (bass), and Dan aka The Postinator (drums), tear straight into melodic skate punk of the insanely infectious 'Won't Let Go' before the soaring melody and mid-paced uplifting tune 'Feet On The Ladder' kicks in. 'Divided' is a great short blast of powerful skate/punk melodic hardcore that brings to mind influences such as Lifetime, Kid Dynamite, and The Lawrence Arms. 'Refund It' rages against sweat shops and big businesses exploiting their workers and 'Nine To Five' tackles the boredom of a job you hate, showing how the trio have a social conscience and have something to say. 'Proud To Say' shows their other side and highlights how these guys love playing as a band and being around their friends, as does the final track 'I'm Home', with raucous backing vocals from their new friends in Latterman. 'Shake Up' is an incredible debut album that stands head and shoulders above most of the UK punk scene and is one of the most exciting and passionate punk albums this year. This should shake things up. 5/5 - BIG CHEESE MAGAZINE |
