Their gig in Sojo's last year was fenomenal, THE ATOMIC BITCHWAX is a 100% bulletproof live experience, a classic power trio combining the versatility of Cream with Mountain’s crushing power and the manic energy of the best hard rock out there. If you are in for this, then come and check 'em out at Tijl in Diest on Friday May 20th (Driving directions). And the perfect support would be THE KILLBOTS, Limburg's own retro rock band.
