ATOMIC - Soul Sister (Official Music Video)

"Soul Sister" is taken from new album "Coming Up From The Streets" which is due for release on April 18th through Dandyland / Cargo Records on CD and Rookie Records / Cargo Records on vinyl. ATOMIC can count on quite a following in 2008, having played more than 200 shows not only in their native Germany, but also in Austria, Switzerland, the Czech Republic and England. Given that we are talking about a German guitar pop-band this is a massive achievement which helped them gain a more than solid reputation among German indieheads. Stemming far from the urban centers of Berlin, Hamburg or Munich , twin brothers Thomas and Rainer Marschel were raised out in the woods of the Bavarian Forest and started out in 2000 to form a band that would take them places. The fact that ATOMIC could not rely on a weel-established network has always been regarded as a challenge rather than an obstacle. "The Big Issue", their debut release of 2002, proved to be a first success with an ever growing audience. The self distributed mini-album got a well deserved mention in the "NME" and thousands of copies were sold only through online and merchandise sales. For ATOMIC this success eventually caused them to open for the Babyshambles, Kula Shaker and Paul Weller & Gem Archer (Oasis) on their respective tours of Germany and Austria. After the debut album "Wonderland Boulevard" in 2005, their sophomore effort, entitled "Coming Up From The Streets", strings eleven highly charged and emotionally intense cuts together. From outright rockstomper "Magic Daydream" via symphonic "Something Wonderful" all the way to the groovy "I´m A Man", "Coming Up From The Streets" oozes the urge to be heard and loved. The recording of the album in Munich's Telstar Studios, of Arctic Monkeys and The Cribs fame, saw dramatic changes in the line-up: While the bands masterminds Thomas (voc) and Rainer Marschel (voc&g) remained at the helm, Markus Schalk (g), Holger Jacob (b) and Daniel Peucker (dr) are all new additions to ATOMIC. They're coming up from the streets -- and they're not bound to stop.

Lederjacken, wie es sich gehört, Bassistenfrisur wie Simon Lindley, was dürfen wir von solcher state of the art denn tatsächlich Überraschendes erwarten? die musik ist gar nicht schlecht, aber die attitüde ... brrr ...

I like the song and the music but I gave it a thumbs down because I'm sick and tired of white guys co-opting black culture for the last fifty years.

 It's okay to like black art and to imitate it somewhat but I just don't need another honkie singing about a soul sister.
