About Me

Flat Atom - the band that makes you shake your ass, while you beat your buddies in the pit. We've been described thusly: "instead of sitting in a closet and crying while saying 'fuck you', as so many modern rock bands do, Flat Atom screams 'FUCK YOU' at the the top of their lungs, then steals your car and goes to Mexico."
We are a matte-black El Camino, compared to modern rock's shiny Mercedes.
We are loud, aggressive, and vulgar.
We are caged chaos.
We put the punk back into 'industrial punk'
We are Flat 'Fuckin' Atom. ____________________________________________________________ ______________________________________CONSUME FLAT ATOM!!!
