In a busy three years since New Jersey’s most powerful power trio THE ATOMIC BITCHWAX, issued 2017’s "Force Field", they’ve toured the US and Europe multiple times over, taken part in fests far and wide, and blown past the 20th anniversary of their self-titled debut album. "Scorpio" is the follow up to the group's 2017 full-length 'Force Field', and their eighth studio LP overall spanning more than two decades. "Scorpio" was released in August 28th via Tee Pee Records.
The album acknowledges the two-decades milestone in its opening revamp of the first song the band ever wrote with vocals, “Hope You Die,” the crash-in of which will be immediately familiar to anyone who’s seen them live. A generation later, it still gets the message across.
Tracked in Jan. 2020 at Sound Spa in Edison, NJ, with Stephen DeAcutis engineering, "Scorpio" is a righteous next stage of the momentum The Atomic Bitchwax have been building through hard touring and release after release of gauntlet-throwing-down rock and roll. This is a band that never stops moving, and only ever moves forward.
The group, which originally formed in the mid-90s, consists of lead vocalist/bassist Chris Kosnik, drummer Bob Pantella, and guitarist Garrett Sweeny, all of whom are past or present members of the band MONSTER MAGNET.
Today's tune "Easy Action" is taken from the latest release, enjoy!
