a band that started out in 1995 with the album anywhere but here. they started from punk roots as they were on kung fu records because of the vandals. with each album, their
music progressed and members switched around until their current lineup became kris roe guitarist,
john corolla guitar, mike davenport bass, and chris knapp (aka
kid) drums. they got signed to columbia after and started making different
music which lead their old fans to believe that they were sell outs. regardless, they were still the same
people. however years later:
mike and
kid left (or got kicked out) because of various reasons. mike had an addiction problem and kris was being a jackass to
kid, which lead him to leave. the ataris now a 7 piece is recording their new album: welcome the night and should be due in July. this should be a deeper album and a big change because kris just went through a divorce with his ex.
1. Even though
people said the ataris sold out with so
long astoria, they are wrong! they still kickass; i just played san dimas at their last show!
2. Wow I cannot beleive whta a douche kris has turned into. what happened to the real ataris? they were true.
