Influences
Sounds LikeA huge sound where moments of straight forward driving monster-rock weave into spacey dreamscapes and ambient lullabies before roaring back into sonic glory.

We've been collecting comparisons from our fans that are sometimes a little zany. I shall show you: "you sound like incubus & muse meets radiohead." "you sound like the bravery & coldplay" "you sound like U2 and death cab for cutie." "You sound like chili peppers, coheed and cambria and fugazi" (yeah... that would be an interesting combo) So you can see, we get some pretty various comparisons. What does that mean? Listen and find out for yourself.

   About Atlas Takes Aim
Formed by longtime friends and bandmates Mason Ian, billie the girl & Joel Blickenstaff, Atlas Takes Aim emerged out of the Las Vegas scene in the summer of 2006. They quickly established themselves and won fans for their cathartic and energized live performances, and for their memorable and unique songs. They are also known for their strong DIY ethic. Each album is wholly created, start to finish, by the members of Atlas Takes Aim. They mix, master and produce the whole thing themselves. Their first "unofficial" cd (The 12th Month EP) was originally created just to book gigs, but it sold out. Their first official release the "Tuesday EP" came onto the scene in 2008 and pushed the band to greater heights. The newest album, the "Wednesday EP", has elevated Atlas Takes Aim's sound. Go on, have a listen.

That would be really perfect actually.  I don't really do video or pictures anymore.  I've been really focusing on jamming my ass off and getting some more Microsoft certs.  I'm going for a better job at work, so and it's been extremely chaoic....a friend got fired.....i split my head open and got 28 stiches, prior to that i burnt my left hand deep frying tempura shrimp (refer to my blog)pretty fucked up.
