The Ataris - So Long Astoria

Label: Columbia
Genre: Pop Punk
Year: 2003
Recommended by: Stephen Weidner

I like The Ataris. I hate So Long Astoria. "Boys of Summer" was bad when Don Henley originally wrote it, the cover is still not good. 

I'm going to sound like a hipster, but End is Forever is The Ataris album you should listen to. It's songwriting is better, the music is more interesting, and Don Henley didn't write any of the songs.

The Ataris basically became the American Nickelback. They are an unoffensive capable band who can churn a few hits out there, but seem to be uninterested to say anything. Listen to End is Forever.
