ATOMIC SUPLEX
RAWK N NOISE
ATOMIC SUPLEX’s live show has been descried as an“action explosion”, a review that perhaps sums up the band manifesto. Energy and an aspiration to sound like white noise and hammers is of course more important than anything as boring as “ability” or “songs”. ”Two minutes is long enough for any song, three minutes is only OK if at least one and a half minute of that is just feedback.”

REVIEWS
“Wow, the ATOMIC SUPLEX track, ‘Atomic Suplexed by a Girl,’ is a mid-to-faster-paced garage rocker that packs a serious punch. It’s catchy enough that you can’t help but bounce your head in time with the ‘beat.’ And it’s all over within two minutes; you can’t ask for much more than that. When you’re all done you feel like you¹ve had a triple espresso. That’s right, I said ‘espresso.’ THE SWANKERS cut, ‘Fuck Off,’ is just as rocking, but take away a little garage and add some UK power pop. Oh, and it’s got the sort of female vocals that just drive me wild. Individually, these cuts would be worth searching out. Together on a single disc, you really need to track this one down. (KK) “
MAXIMUN ROCK AND ROLL MAGAZINE“Kicking off with a banshee scream that embodies pure hedonistic evil, ‘Fuck Off’ is the kind of super-speed garage rock that gets Japanese girls riding motorcycles naked. Like the demented cousin of ‘Fell In Love With A Girl’, it takes under two minutes to slap you in the face, scrawl lipstick down your cheek, kick you in the nuts and throw you off the roof. Meanwhile, label mates Atomic Suplex dispense with the formalities (read: the tune) altogether, preferring to unleash one and a half minutes of pure offensive distortion. Both these bands are rare things of beauty – and deserve your ass for dinner.”
ARTROCKER“Superfuzz double-shot. A double dose of totally trashy garage punk from Death Pop Records. The SWANKERS lead this off with “Fuck Off,”- a balls out female fronted attack of pure garage adrenaline crashing at you like a surging hybrid of the SLITS and the COME ON’S. Fuzzed out in it’s lo-fi terror, you gotta love it when she’s screaming “Get outta my life, Get outta my way, Fuck off!” Nice guitar licks, great melody and beat. Mean and not very clean. Just the way I like it. ATOMIC SUPLEX follows with a massively distorted rage of garage rock, “Atomic Suplexed by a Girl.” Billed as what Bill Haley would sound like if you had the worst tinnitus in the world, unfortunately, here the lo-fi production or actually no-fi production works against the band. There’s a killer riff and some tasty guitar parts in there somewhere, but it’s all lost in a screaching sea of static and feedback. While that may appeal to some, I like even my fuzz rock to be a touch cleaner than this. It’s a shame. Sounds like a great song under the noise, if the guys clean it up just a touch, they’ll have a winner.”
PEACEDOGMAN“Riotous rawk courtesy of the scowling and totally mental Atomic Suplex. ‘Atomic Suplexed By A Girl’ is so deliciously dirty and sleazy-sounding, you’ll be hot footing it for a shower, the minute its run its course and left your beleagured hi-fi in a state of nervous wreck. Scuzzed-up fuzzed-up carnage that insidiously takes its cue from Sweatmaster, as were with a hot poker shoved up their backside, and taps into the early back catalogue of the greased-up garage-trashing unholy trio of Mudhoney/Halo of Flies/Dwarves. Absolutely essential sell a relative if need be – you need this.
