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.
