Atlas Shrugged

"Old Familiar Face" 7"

This was another split label release with Fistheldhigh Records. Although never immensely popular, Atlas Shrugged was always a band I was willing to work with. That was largely because I share so many of the viewpoints on hardcore as band member Chris Weinblad. Whether you like them or not, this can be said of this New York band, they played the type of music they enjoyed playing and listening too. They never hopped on any bandwagon. I also respected them because they kept playing and practicing even though they knew touring or getting "big" was never a possibility. They were "older" hardcore guys who had jobs and financial responsibilities and the option of not working for a month, or even a couple of weeks, was just not a possibility. They still did what they loved to do, play hardcore.
