12/20/09 - The Nick Atoms
Here's how the Nick Atoms started according to their website:
Years ago, Dr. Ted Nelson created two robots of extraordinary musical skill: Coburn and Wyngarde. Fueled by their creator’s steady atomic percussion, the two musical automatons are guided by Dr. Ted Nelson through the farthest reaches of science fiction cinema and television. However, Coburn and Wyngarde inherited the rebellious spirit of famed B-movie actor and Godzilla icon, Nick Adams, during their atomization. Fighting this inner-rebellion, Dr. Ted Nelson embarks on his most deadly experiment: The Nick Atoms!
I must say that I am not as well versed on the Nick Atoms as I would like to be. Of course, this can be fixed by going to their website and downloading 4 of their albums for free (http://thenickatoms.org/music/) Of course, if you have not heard by now, they are the musical guest of honor for Marscon, 2010 in a sort of reunion/finale performance.
This song is currently posted on their webpage celebrating Christmas. The kid is cute. This is, "It's Christmas Time" by the Nick Atoms. Enjoy
