Tee Pee Records to Reissue the Bitchwax

The distinguished gentlemen of The Atomic Bitchwax.MeteorCity put it out in a limited edition of 1,000 copies last year, but according to the PR wire, Tee Pee Records — the band’s home when they put out 1999’s I and 2000’s II — has signed on to reissue TAB 4, the latest offering from New Jersey mainstays The Atomic Bitchwax.

Cool news one way or the other, even if the album was a bit too poppy for a lot of fans. I thought it had its moments. It looks like the label is focusing on the track “Revival,” which is a good move. It’s probably the best example of the new, “mature” Bitchwax the band is putting forward on the record. Here’s the press release:

The original incarnation.Chris Kosnik (Bass & Vocals) Bob Pantella (Drums, also from Monster Magnet) and Finn Ryan (Guitar & vocals) are back again combining the best of their Rush-like riff mazes and the dueling Kosnik/Ryan vocal harmonies creating the wall of sound and precision TAB fans have come to expect.

In 2008, the Jersey Shore power trio The Atomic Bitchwax set out to record their latest 11 high energy Riff-Rock tunes on the appropriately titled TAB 4. Recorded by the band themselves and mixed by Eric Rachel at the famed NJ Trax-East Studios, this time around finds the band shifting gears over and over from the pulsing groove of the title track “Revival” to the inhuman face melting speed of the instrumental “Super Computer” will leave listeners and players alike wanting more.

For more than 10 years the band has climbed up and out from the basements of NJ to play nearly 1,000 live shows in over 20 countries, currently on tour in Europe. This is no three chord bullshit…this is the Bitchwax.

    Awesome…Never got around to getting this as it was too expensive for my tastes via the band’s website.

    A bit too poppy is putting it very kindly. Also, I’m pretty sure Pantella was in a coma when he recorded his parts.

    Just never could get into AB after Mundell split.
