   About The Photo Atlas

The beauty behind The Photo Atlas is the brotherhood that encompasses the band. It was this relationship that was the adhesive behind the massive sound on their most recent EP "To Silently Provoke The Ghost." 2009. The group’s music blends the angularity and drive of Fugazi, the gut-punch of At The Drive-In and the infectiousness of The Faint all into one explosive little package

The Photo Atlas's dynamic indie dance rock tracks are coated with vital melodies, explosive guitar riffs and demanding drum beats, which bring a sense of movement to each song. The Photo Atlas have been keeping busy since their previous album release "No, Not Me, Never"2008 playing festivals such as the Monolith Festival,as well as the Mile High Festival, Warped Tour, SXSW, CMJ, and XGAMES. The Photo Atlas have kept a rigorous touring schedule playing over 200 shows in 2008 and touring with the likes of The Bravery, Portugal.The Man, and Scary Kids Scaring Kids.

The band recently celebrated the release of a split EP "Friendship EP" with fellow denver band The Epilogues and are gearing up to record a full length record in the new year.





"The Photo Altas is the result of uprotected sex between The Faint and At The Drive-In, although The Photo Atlas don’t sound derivative of either." - Alternative Press

"one of twenty-two underground bands that likely won't stay underground for long." Alternative Press

"The Photo Atlas sports an aggressive indie punk sound... a frenetic Brit rock dance punk amalgam, a blazing cross between Fugazi and Gang of Four." - Amplifier

"The Photo Atlas are getting better with every release. Their mixture of Faint hyperactivity and pop choruses has truly blossomed since No, Not Me, Never." -Absolute Punk

"Sharp-edged post-punk a la Franz Ferdinand and The Rapture is at its most vulnerable in the Photo Atlas." - ABC News

"sounds like the love child of Ima Robot and The Used. No, Not Me, Never is fused frazzled guitars."-Spin.com

"stinging post-punk powered by racing dance rhythms"-CMJ

A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store, but couldn't find one big enough for her family. She asked the stock boy, 'Do these turkeys get any bigger?'

The stock boy answered, 'No ma'am, they're dead.'

This band right here is really good. I dont get how they have not blown up yet. No,not me, never is so great. I can't count how many times I've heard it. Provoke the Ghost is pretty decent and this band is a blast live. Thanks for being from colorado and not sucking. big love from fort collins.
