Atari Teenage Riot Announce Release Date For "Is This Hyperreal?"

"Is This Hyperreal?," Atari Teenage Riot's first album released through LA future stomp label Dim Mak, is an acetylene laced documentation of ATR's re-ignition after an eleven year silence. Produced, mixed, recorded with Alec Empire, Nic Endo and new ATR member CX Kidtronik (Saul Williams/Nine Inch Nails), ATR's fourth studio release was made at the Hellish Vortex studio in Berlin.

A cultural cold war divided upon class lines, a new age of surveillance, heroes' incarcerated in the worst conditions possible for speaking out against the military complex, a corrupt press core owned by multi-national corporations and raised to repeat sound bytes. This is the post-cyberpunk world on the brink of collapse Atari Teenage Riot's "Is This Hyperreal?" is born into. Every track is an iridescent explosion of nervous energy requesting your attendance in Atari Teenage Riot's campaign party of education and awareness. Having influenced a generation of M.I.A., Crystal Castles, Le Tigre, Sleigh Bells, and Pendulum, Atari Teenage Riot is a welcome shot in the arm of the music industry.
