Atomic Workers is an Italian band formed in 2003 by bass player Michele Rossiello. In the same year, they recorded their debut album Embryonic Suicide and in 2007 they released their second effort Wall Of Water Behind Me. Together with Laurence O’Tool (guitar, vocals), Daniel Sindaco (guitar), Diego Mocci (drums) and Fabio Mongelli (guitars) Rossiello released Third Disaster. With such a title, my expectations didn’t run high in advance. I really tried to listen to this album without being biased, but it didn’t help a bit. This album really is a true disaster! Don’t expect prog or symphonic rock here! It’s just seventies hard rock, influenced by psychedelia, garage rock and early punk (!). I’m sorry to say, but this not the kind of music the readers of our magazine like. The songs are much too heavy and besides I missed a progressive or symphonic structure in practically all nine tracks. After listening to this album once, my reward was a big headache. Normally, I listen to the albums I have to review several times before reaching my final rating, but this time one spin was more than enough. The sound of my washing machine is even more interesting than this rubbish. Please, release me from this torture!
