Jun 20, 2011Pummelling electro punk at it's finest.
-
Jun 20, 2011Atari Teenage Riot in 2011 are as raw and self indulgent as they ever were, and while their comeback record won't seal their place in history, those who loved them the first time around will lap it up.
-
Kerrang!Jun 29, 2011While their sloganeering remains simplistic, the courage of their convictions continues to drive them forward against an unforgiving world in style. [18 Jun 2011, p.51]
-
UncutJun 17, 2011They're marching to a '90s beat, like the internet never happened and fresh tools were never invented. [Jul 2011, p.77]

Jun 30, 2011On this new album, it's not so much a problem that they remain stuck in the 90s politically, but more that their music seems so irrelevant sonically and willing to wallow in a mid-tempo techno-metal goth-night ghetto.

Jun 27, 2011To put it simply, Is This Hyperreal? suffers not because the band made a bad album, but because this is the fourth time they've repeated the formula.
-
Jun 21, 2011This time around, ATR's protest platitudes ("Are you ready to testify?") and electronic skronk-thud ("Digital Decay," with female member Nic Endo holding forth on Internet freedom), sound awkwardly dated.
