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.

The song "So Come On" by The Atomic Bitchwax features repetitive lyrics that create a dreamlike atmosphere. The first two verses repeatedly state "So come on, my love, so cool above," which could be interpreted as a call to a lover to join them in their elevated state. The singer expresses anticipation for this love every day. The refrain also includes the same six lines, highlighting the desire for this awaited love.
The middle section of the song introduces a contrast to the dreamy tone with lines that indicate restlessness and paranoia. The lyrics speak of someone who is tired of running around the town and now feels as if they are being watched. Lines repeat here, as well, emphasizing the weariness of the situation. The vocals then return to the refrain, which continues to evoke a sense of longing for an appearance of the character's beloved.
Overall, "So Come On" portrays a lover's anxieties about the challenges and expectations of love. The song presents a dreamy hopefulness that is juxtaposed with a sense of reality check.
