Jacob,
In the liner notes it says that the band originally titled the song
World War III, but the label had some "issues" with that and it was
renamed to War of the Worlds. That song is kind of like a mini-opera,
they had it all planned out. It starts out ominous, leading to the
war, then the war with all of it's explosive force (and pick
scrapes :), and in the aftermath more optimistic as at least we can
hear the birds chirping, so we know everything is going to recover.
The Atlantics are one of those bands I would build a time machine for
and go see them live. It must have been a thunderous experience with
Express to Bagdhad, War of the Worlds, Bombora, Shark Attack, etc, etc.
And they might win some kind of award for the most number of songs
that end in "Stomp" too. :-)
That link to that video that Klas posted a while back was very cool!
