I KILL PXLS releases Press Start, with surprise goodies included photo

Our own resident maestro of awesome, GuitarAtomik, has announced the release of his newest I KILL PXLS CD, entitled Press Start. If you haven't heard him already, I suggest you snap to it, as his sound is terrific and should appeal to anyone into the chiptunes movement (although the artist has cited influences from Justice to Mr Oizo, so his sound may appeal to fans of many genres.)

You can download the album for free via multiple sources, which is even cooler, because I'd have happily paid for it. The best surprise of all is that the recent Destructoid theme Guitar Atomik composed for us is included as the final track. Of course, his music alone is awesome enough, but add in that he creates amazing art too, and the envy starts to set in. What can't you do, dude?

Anyway, free album, awesome artist. Go do some non-illegal downloading for a change. You can also donate some gil to his cause, should you be motivated to do so.

I listened to this all day today at work, along with his other 2 albums. I didn't even think I'd be into this kind of music, but I gotta say, it was pretty damned awesome. Great stuff GuitarAtomik, you just made yourself a fan

lol Press Start is probably one of the most over used titles for a chiptune album ever. EVER.

I'm still totally downloading it though.

I'm also unable to come up with an original title for the album. I tried! I swear! But eventually I was just like "Fuck it....Press Start."

Glad to see this on the front page! Album is great! I've been listening to it on repeat as I get work done around the house and pimping it to everyone I know.

You should of named it after one of your songs xD. "Your last life" is my fav, it has my vote for the album title.

I'm good with that. From now on, unofficially, we will refer to this album as "Your Last Life". Xenu's will be done.

I lol'd at the Jack Thompson one.
They are pretty cool and sound awesome.

and yeah, I agree with Neonie, "Your Last Life" would have been a better album title.
