  • Bio

    The New York City based alternative rock band, Atomic Brother, was formed in 2003 byJames Melillo (lead vocals/guitar) and S.A. Sebastian Gnolfo (bass/vocals). While categorized mainly as rock, the diversity of the band's musical influences is apparent in their ability to master a number of different styles--from rock to punk, blues to country to pop, and and even slower songs and ballads. Listeners are often surprised at the wide range of musical styles found on the debut album See Me Comin'. After the heavy riffs in "Not My Fault" and the title track "See Me Comin'," it's refreshing to find that the band is also capable of playing punk rock tunes like "Employee of the Month," slow ballads such as "Home in the Sky," and Spanish-feeling songs like "Never Home." Many listeners compare Atomic Brother's music to Foo-Fighters, Henry Rollins, The Ramones, Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix. When writing music, Melillo and Gnolfo pay no attention to the style each song turns out to be. According to Gnolfo, they were "tired of hearing bands both live and on CD that sound the same from start to finish," so they decided to focus more on writing good music and less on keeping it within a particular genre. "If it sounds good and we both like it," stated Melillo, "we'll use it. Period. A good song is a good song."
