Atari Teenage Riot is a German digital hardcore group formed in Berlin in 1992. Highly political, they fused left-wing anarchist anti-fascist views with punk vocals and the newly emerging techno sound that was called digital hardcore, which is a term Alec Empire later used in the name of his record company.

News, drug abuse to the future
And the hypocrites cry who dies next
And I tell you a story from the underground
Nothing funny about get down to get hyped
Kill me and no one's gonna miss me
It's a dead world and it's about that time to clear things here
One generation follows another
But something in my head says
Keep going don't give up
Cold sweat running down my back
Bang your head
Come on, 1, 2, 3, 4
Into the death, into the death, into the death
Into the death, into the death, into the death
Into the death, into the death, into the death
