"The white dove is gone, the one world has come down hard, so why not share the pain of our problems, when all around are wrong ways, when all around is hurt, i'll roll up in an odd shape and wait, untill the tide has turned.....with anger, i'm dead weight, i'm anchored"- IME, God Rocket (Into the Heart of Las Vegas) ^ Some say this song is about a terrorists thoughts before 911
"Pray for the sheep" Matt Good
"But it's alright, take the world and make it yours again" Matt Good
I felt it in the wind, and i saw it in the sky, i thought it was the end, i thought it was the 4th of July.

The Ataris are punk rock? I just assumed they were four guys having fun on stage. But I guess if you're not classic rock nowadays or don't use an acoustic guitar, you're punk. Rock on.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

Seeing them live is great. It just makes me want to dance around. They're one of those bands you have to see live to really appreciate.

Someone <b>help</b> us understand

I <b>don't</b> want to hear who walked
On water, because the hallways <b>are</b> empty
And the clock <b>ticks<b>...

Hell yes. Get on the punk wagon 'cause it's sure in for a hell of a ride...and that doesn't mean musically. Fuck, that didn't make sense. Another attempt at humour gone down the shitter.
Argh...I'm not too fond of them either. They're just another typical punk band trying to be "cool" and get some cashola.
who really cares what type of music they are considered
they are good at what they do and what they do is have fun and make me smile with clever lyrics

They started thier band before pop-punk became popular, thier just starting to get on MTV now. If they were just trying to be cool, they wouldn't have worked thier butts off on tour for the last 6 years now would they.

I feel the same way... I really don't care for most of the Ataris song library, but the way they covered this song is just awesome and addicting to listen to.

Alan... Why is it that you snapped at me for calling them "punk/rock", but when Jeff said that they're "pop-punk" you agreed with him without a hitch?

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

Way to try and start a fight two weeks after the matter Rob. It was a joke. Jeebus.
