The Atomic Love Bombs: a benefit show for the Silicon Valley Roller Girls April 12, 2008

The Atomic Love Bombs have exploded upon the music scene like, well, an atomic bomb. Made up of former members of established West Coast psychedelic and 60s garage rock-inspired bands including Jello Moon Shot, The Smile Experiment, My Cousin Mary, and The Daisy Chainsaw Massacre, The Atomic Love Bombs have definitely paid their dues over the past 10 years. They are a rock band’s rock band with a serious arsenal of psych-pop-garage hooks, meshed with inspiring melodies and lyrics that leave their audiences begging for more. Ash Townsend fronts the band with vocals and swagger, while the haunting guitar interplay of Michael Schifano, Bryan Chaffin, and Joe Mitch is inventive and adds a unique blend of melody and noise to each song. The rave-up rhythm section of Tim Rye and Mike McCaffery rounds out the band.

“Like a cross between Jefferson Airplane and X…”

“Swirling, melodic, noisy, epic…”
