about

We were payed really well to re-record this track from God Save the ABPK with commercial producers for a compilation that was distributed for free to millions of people. The whole thing was weird for us because they were insisting on dramatic changes to our arrangements, instrumentation, even lyrics, while we were recording. I would have never produced the song like this but they were good at accomplishing their goal of making us a little more commercial. At the time the whole thing was a little traumatic, now it’s interesting... one of many many stories from the band’s history.

about

Atombombpocketknife Chicago, Illinois

Formed in 1997, Chicago's Atombombpocketknife broke up in 2005 after multiple US and European tours, two albums and an EP on Southern, and a third album on File 13. After final performances including ATP + SXSW, the band stopped, but remained close friends.

ABPK reunited for a week this summer (2011) to play a wedding at The Empty Bottle. The show inspired the new singles and rarities collection.
