Already 2 years in the making, American Trash Republic has established themselves firmly in the Indie music scene. After their hit debut album "How Dying Saved My Life" was released, it wasn't too long before the acronym and name alike went circulating via whispers of the underground.
The group started out with the minds of Death Before Dishonor, Concept Oner, Skull Bludgeon, Pilot Apollo and Alter Ego. Although most of the members have known each other for years and have even worked on past projects together, they didn't go under the name ATR until 2004 when production on "How Dying Saved My Life" began. About 75% of the freshman album was recorded in Tucson Arizona with DJ Illete, who also produced two of the tracks on the album. Once released it quickly caused a stir in the local underground community of Denver Colorado where the 5 members grew up. Having only released one album, the real success for ATR is driven by the live shows which have been described as "intense" and "hardcore".
Now nearing 2007, ATR picks up musical mastermind Discreet and also begins working on their new LP, "Eat Your Heart Out".
