This one goes out to all you sinners… Indeed the Atomic Church is upon us, the dawn of a new way, a new Rock & Roll culture… a new… addiction!

Roachpowder's second release transcends typical Stoner Rock musical boundaries, grasping a wide variety of cultural inversions along the way, this Swedish-based group is poised to rocket straight to the top of the new wave of bong-loading hard rockers!

Atomic Church spews as much as it injects the venom to all weary listeners waiting for the next big thing to bring them out of their latest death trip daze and Roach Powder, intoxicatingly fresh, highly addictive, and unyielding in its
influence, arrives at just the right time.

Following up their impressive "Viejo Diablo" debut from a couple years earlier, this cacophonous quartet opens up and bleeds on such harrowing tracks as "House of the Wicked," "All Hail and Kneel Before Me," and "Balls of the Sun," which for any who can remember tears a page right out of Leslie West and Mountain's book!

With plenty of psychedelic sludge and meteoric muscle to support them, Roach Powder calls upon the many greats
of yesterday and today to forge a stylistic new upheaval in what has lately become a too common tradition of shortcoming and stagnancy-And ye shall lead us not into temptation but our salvation shall be that which guides us home… In short, Roach Powder's earlier potential is slowly but surely reaching full fruition-"Lords of the New Church?"
