Atlas Takes Aim

You only live once... Rock Wisely.

About Me

we can't afford to dress like rockstars. besides, we're too busy making art that sounds like music.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 7/9/2007
Band Website: atlastakesaim.com
Band Members: Mason Ian: Vox & Guitar
Joel: Drums
billie "the girl": Bass Guitar
Influences:

Sounds Like: A huge sound where moments of straight forward driving monster-rock weave into spacey dreamscapes and ambient lullabies before roaring back into sonic glory.

We've been collecting comparisons from our fans that are sometimes a little zany. I shall show you: "you sound like incubus & muse meets radiohead." "you sound like the bravery & coldplay" "you sound like U2 and death cab for cutie." "You sound like chili peppers, coheed and cambria and fugazi" (yeah... that would be an interesting combo) So you can see, we get some pretty various comparisons. What does that mean? Listen and find out for yourself.
Type of Label: None
