A copy of the new Atari Teenage Riot album "60 Second Wipe Out" landed in my
hands this evening. If you are one of the people who have been waiting for
Alec Empire to fall on his face, you will be jumping up 'n' down. Its "Burn
Berlin Burn" with a different title. There is no progress and no innovation;
just the same old beats, metal riffs and ranting. Although its of little
musical consequence, a guest appearance by a member of Bikini Kill gives you
an idea of where this is at. The best thing on the album is "Digital
Hardcore," which comes close to reaching "The Peak" on the spasm meter.
