Here’s the full 7” discography by UK wave\/post-punk band Bikini Atoll, who takes their name from a nuclear testing site in the Marshall Islands, located in the deep Pacific Ocean territory. As for the music, you can expect a mix of gloomy and jerky melodies, stellar female vox, icy synths, and a solid discography across these six tracks. If you dig things like Altered Images, Au Pairs, The Limp<\/a>, Industrie<\/a>\u00a0etc. this is definitely the band for you.<\/p>\n

Sadly, I don’t know much about them, though it appears that their lineup changed between the first and second single, mostly swapping their rhythm section. The first of the three is my least favorite (though not at all bad) so\u00a0this might very well explain the jump in quality with a quick personnel shift. With that in mind, here’s the info for these killer singles:<\/p>\n
