ATOMKRAFT Apologize For Technical Problems At Dutch Festival Appearance
April 6, 2005Reformed '80s U.K. metallers ATOMKRAFT, featuring frontman former VENOM frontman/MANTAS bassist Tony Dolan, recently returned from Hardenberg, Holland where they performed at the Raise Your Fist Festival.
According to a posting on Dolan's web site, "technical problems" plagued ATOMKRAFT's performance and the band "fought" to keep the show flowing.
Commented Dolan: "This is nothing new. [Laughs] We never had it fucking easy the first time around, why should we now? Everything was perfect except the actual technics of the show — mics, monitors, a right-handed kit for our left-handed drummer. [Laughs] Just switch it, right? Oh, yeah, unless you are told absolutely it cannot be altered. My drummer is like 6-foot tall and, well, let's just say it was fucked up! Still, we have that age-old ATOMKRAFT moral of 'Fuck it, nothing's gonna stop this from hitting you,' so to all that were there, I apologize we were not at our best, but we were not in control of that and when you see us again, we will kick a new fucking hole in where ever we may be, trust me!!"
ATOMKRAFT recently announced the addition of drummer Steve Mason (BLINDED BY FEAR, ex-IRONFIRE) and guitarist Payre (ex-VIPERINE, HUNTER/KILLER) to the group's ranks.
