THE ATOMIC BITCHWAX To Release The Local Fuzz In April; Artwork Revealed
February 9, 2011, 13 years ago
Legendary New Jersey hard rock band THE ATOMIC BITCHWAX (aka TAB) will release its new album, The Local Fuzz, on April 26th via Tee Pee Records.
The trio's fifth full length effort delivers an advanced take on its blistering, virtuosic sound via a single, glorious 42 minute song titled 'The Local Fuzz' that contains no less than "50 riffs back to back", perfectly capturing the unit's vivid execution and ambitious vision.
Recorded at the Panic Room in Neptune, NJ, The Local Fuzz pushes The Atomic Bitchwax's high-octane groove and powerful strut to new heights of unencumbered artistic expression. The band's "Rush-like riff mazes" weave through natural pop structures nearly effortlessly while the record's out-of-site production showcases the musicians' prowess at the apex of their career to date. Widely recognized as pioneers of the modern hard (or "stoner") rock sound, The Local Fuzz shows The Atomic Bitchwax as a forward-thinking band not content to rest on career accomplishments; instead surging forward to give fans a brand new way to re-experience the exhilarating rush and sonic assault of heavyweight rock 'n' roll.
Prior to the release of The Local Fuzz, The Atomic Bitchwax will headline a Tee Pee Records European label tour which will kick off on April 5th in Wiesbaden. The tour will also feature Brooklyn heavy psych band NAAM, Toronto-based psych rock band QUEST FOR FIRE and NYC rockers MIRROR QUEEN.
