| Rust red splatter vinyl. 2025 re-recorded version. The Ataris' 'Car Song' 7-inch is dedicated to the memory of William Charles Roe, father of lead vocalist/guitarist Kristopher Roe and the self-proclaimed biggest fan of The Ataris who has ever lived. William Charles Roe passed in January 2014 and his body was cremated shortly thereafter. In addition to being Kristopher Roe's father and the self-proclaimed biggest fan of The Ataris who has ever lived, William Charles Roe was an alcoholic. He battled alcoholism most of his life and his family was deeply affected by his struggles. In addition to being Kristopher Roe's father and the biggest fan of The Ataris who has ever lived, William Charles Roe was an alcoholic. He battled alcoholism most of his life and his family was deeply affected by his struggles. Double Helix Records will be donating a portion of the profits from the sale of this record to a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization based in Connecticut, USA to help those who are struggling with or affected by alcoholism and addiction. The record features a brand-new The Ataris song called "Car Song" on Side A, which is the first radio single released by The Ataris since 2017. "Car Song" is backed with a full-band re-recording of the hit single "In This Diary" from their 2003 full-length album 'So Long, Astoria' on Side B. The inclusion of "In This Diary" was quite deliberate because it was one of William Charles Roe's favorite The Ataris songs and it was the first time he saw the band and his son on TV. Double Helix Records is releasing three limited-edition custom color variants of The Ataris' 'Car Song' 7-inch record. Double Helix Records is also releasing one super-limited, hyper-custom ashes pressing that will include William Charles Roe's ashes pressed into every copy of the record, so his memory and spirit may live on eternally as a part of The Ataris' music. The William Charles Roe ashes pressing will only be available directly from The Ataris and Double Helix Records. The limited edition Rust Red Splatter variant (418x available worldwide), which was pressed by Microforum Vinyl in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and does not contain William Charles Roe's ashes, is available in record stores via Double Helix Records. |
