Their music is a combination of 60s psychedelic rock, and 70s riff rock filtered though the progressive rock influences of today. Since their first release in 1999 'The Atomic Bitchwax' on Tee Pee Rec., they have toured every year in North America and Europe covering over 15 countries and continue to expand. In that time the band has released five more records including three full lengths. 'TAB-2, 3 and 4', two EPs 'Spit Blood', and 'Boxriff', which included a DVD live show filmed in Seattle's Sunset Tavern. Their music has also appeared in popular TV shows including 'Jackass', 'Home-wrecker' and 'Fox sports'. Future plans include the 2011 release of 'The Local Fuzz', boasting one 40 min. track of over 50 riffs back to back. This was followed by a live tour in April that year.

Last of the V8 Interceptors
The Atomic Bitchwax Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your defenses have been compromised.
Your kings are dead.
You fought well, but your efforts were ? plus futile at best.
You have been an insignificant, foolish, and sad race.
We are the new lords of this world.
Peace, hope, and love are not options.
We will fuck and impregnate your females and groom the males for our food source.
Now we will begin.
The lyrics to The Atomic Bitchwax's song "Last of the V8 Interceptors" are quite dystopian and create a picture of a post-apocalyptic world taken over by an alien race. The opening line "Attention! Your defenses have been compromised" sets the scene of a military defeat, and the following line "Your kings are dead" suggests the rulers of this world have been overthrown or destroyed. The next line "You fought well, but your efforts were futile at best" creates an image of a valiant but ultimately doomed struggle against a superior enemy, leaving the race feeling insignificant, foolish, and sad, ready to accept their fate.
The subsequent line "We are the new lords of this world" introduces the alien conquerors as the dominant force, and the following line "Peace, hope, and love are not options" ironically undermines the potential for any positive outcomes in this version of the future. The final two lines of the song "We will fuck and impregnate your females and groom the males for our food source. Now we will begin" paints a particularly disturbing and savage image, showing the aliens' intentions to use humans as both reproductive vessels and sustenance.
Overall, the song reflects a dark and pessimistic view of the future, where human life is in peril and peaceful coexistence is impossible.
