1) Atomizer, a blackened thrash metal band, formed in July 1998 with the intention of playing rock 'n' roll styled black metal. Recording their first demo in December 1998 did not quite go as planned, and that original line up dissolved soon after this. However, the band got a record deal with End All Life productions for a vinyl only release of their debut album The End Of Forever (reissued as The Death Of Forever), the LP sold out surprisingly fast and a CD version followed not long after.
A 7" was the next official release and Gimme Natural Selection was a 4 track EP released by Nihilist Void Records from Norway in 500 copies. The first 100 on white, the second on red and the last 300 on black. This record featured two covers - Ace Of Spades by Motörhead, and Wish You Were a Beer by the Cycle Sluts From Hell.
Death Mutation Disease Annihilation was the second Atomizer album and while it took two goes at recording it, it did eventually happen and it was released on LP again by End All Life Productions in April 2002 and then on CD by Drakkar Productions in September 2002. This was the last recording that would feature guitarist Justin Allen, who was removed from the band in October 2001.
In 2002 the band released another two 7" EPs. The band also put out a split 7" with Root that year via the AJNA Offensive.
In the start of 2003, the band began recording their third album, The Only Weapon Of Choice, which was released five months later.
The album was released on the following formats:
*CD - Australia and New Zealand (Animosity International)
*Gatefold LP - Worldwide (AJNA Offensive)
*Pic Disc LP - Worldwide (Agonia Records)
*CD - Worldwide (Agonia Records)
*Ltd Edition DCD - Worldwide (Agonia Records)
After this release, the band worked on Songs Of Slaughter - Songs Of Sacrifice. This release is a little more experimental than their other releases and also contains an instrumental track.
This release is available in the following formats:
*Double gatefold 7" EP with Poster on Agent Orange Vinyl (Hells Headbangers)
*Double pic disc 7" EP in cloth bag with insert (Hells Headbangers)
*Mini CD with bonus track (Hells Headbangers)
*Double CD (Disc II of Weapon) (Agonia Records)
Live activity was ceased in September 2004, and after the passing of drummer Suds, there will never be another chance for a live performance. A live 10" called Atomic Bloodlust was released during the first half of 2007 by Hells Headbangers and a final studio album was released in 2007 as well.
2) Atomizer is a London-based electro duo Jonny Slut and Fil OK, who in addition to running the popular alternative electro club night 'Nag Nag Nag', have released a number of underground club singles.
'Hooked On Radiation' was their first release, on International Deejay Gigolo's, featuring a remix by Pet Shop Boys.
The boys have also released 'Ball & Chain/Snake', 'Underdog', 'Zero Zero', 'I'd Prefer Not To/Rot Of The Stars' and an album 'Rubber Youth', on their own NagNagNag Records.
More recently they've put out 2 more dancefloor friendly EP's "Je Suis Lesbien" and "Karate Marble Factory".
Their second album "Cult of Europa" is released on November 9th 2009, on Nagnagnag Records
The Campaign
Atomizer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A way of life that must go on, a knowledge that lives in the hearts of the chosen
As sure as life and death itself, a thinking and being that must survive
And if our campaign is pure, and commitment lives within our hearts
Our quest will go forth unharmed, for glory is fleeting
And victory's just a part of doing the job right, and it'll take place like this
And it's an age old ideal and one that never died
And the footsteps now trodden, imprint the souls of those who served
We march to the same beat, although we're of a different time
If our campaign is pure, if our campaign is true
And we won't tolerate a thing that stands in the way of completing our quest
And it'll shape up like this
For vengeance will be swift via a hand so merciless
And the hammers will roll out in a bloody masquerade
And some things never change no matter how oft the clock does turn
We march to the same beat though we're of a different time
And if our campaign is pure, and the weapon of choice is within our reach
Our quest shall go forth unharmed
For while glory is fleeting the spoils will be ours just the same
And it'll take place like this
And all subversives crushed, our legacy this will be, with no ifs or buts to be heard
And we'll sound the siren for our faith to rise again
And future generations will fly the flag
The lyrics of Atomizer's song "The Campaign" are powerful and seemingly emphasize the importance of persistence in achieving a desired goal. The lyrics suggest that the idea of living a certain way, of being committed to a particular way of living, is an ancient one that has never truly died. It is a way of living that is not just tied to one generation, but is imprinted on the souls of those who have come before us. This way of life is something that must be preserved and guarded, and it is up to the "chosen" to ensure that it remains intact.
The song suggests that the journey to achieving this ideal will not be easy, but it is necessary. The lyrics suggest that the mission must be pure and true, and anything that gets in the way of achieving the goal must be crushed. The lyrics also suggest that glory is fleeting and victory is only part of doing the job right. The true reward for this relentless pursuit lies in the legacy that is left behind for future generations to carry on.
The overall message in "The Campaign" seems to be that a certain way of life must be relentlessly pursued and guarded, even across generations. The lyrics suggest that anything worth achieving is worth fighting for, and that the pursuit of a higher ideal is something that should never die.

If a Wunderwaffe were to have "relations" with a Gersch Device the Atomizer would be born.
