Atari Teenage Riot Release New EP And Tour South America & Europe

Atari Teenage Riot have released their new Collapse of History EP which is out now via Dim Mak Records. It is classic ATR with an aggressive tempo and politically charged lyrics.

Alec Empire stated about the release, “Our new single is called Collapse of History! It is an anthem for our generation, about information overload in the Digital Age. The track has a big war chant, which went down extremely well with festival crowds since we started playing it live.”

Watch the video below.

Track listing:
1. Collapse of History (Radio Edit)
2. Collapse of History (Mustard Pimp Remix)
3. Collapse of History (T*ts & Cl*ts Remix)

Music Video Addiction: Sunday August 28, 2011 Edition

We are back from our one week hiatus in Germany…sorry for missing last week’s edition of the music video picks, but the hotel Internet connection was far too slow to choose the vids. I hope you enjoy the selections this week; we will start and finish with German artists in honour of our visit to Berlin.

Kraftwerk: The Robots - German godfathers of electronic music…so good.

S.C.U.M: Summon The Sound - Warning – loads of strobes…love their eery sound.

Christian AIDS: Young Luv  – loving this track for a while…wanted to share.

The Maccabees: Love You Better - catchy chorus.

Curve: Coast is Clear - amazing band from the early 90s.

Atari Teenage Riot: Atari Teenage Riot - classic from Berlin based techno punks.

Check back next week for another edition of the music video picks.

Thanks,
Cameron from Culture Addicts
