    Artist History
    In 1948, American scientists began in secret toresume the terrible work begun by the Germans toGenetically engineer the super human. These earlyamerican experiments were conducted in the infamous Hangar 18, at Wright Patterson before being moved tothe underground Dulce bio engineering base in NewMexico.Early indications were promising, and by 1968,the scientists stood ready to produce the first super human- a perfected man, as a soldier- a virtual killing machine- but something went wrong.Terribly Wrong. While digging an expansion tunnel which would linkDulce with the Nevada Base, Groom Lake, an excavationteam stumbled upon a cavern - filled with Greys !A fire fight ensued and the program was completelydestroyed. There were mass casualties on both sides.Most of the genius scientists were killed, and their effort -the Super Human- dead before birth. Several known prototype hybridclones, #A6588, #A6596, and #T99001a, escaped before the level 7 laboratory was demolished by the DOE.After wandering in the desert for a number of days, the three motherless boys were picked up bySherman Sandman, a promoter from Orange, California.The young men adopted "Hollywood" names, Crash, Diesel,and Slide, and then started a musical act. Duringa television appearance on the Sonny and Cher show,the boys were discovered by the secret government.CIA gunmen were dispatched and Sherman Sandman, the boys adopted fathe, incarcerated indefinitely. Perhaps in part due to their genetically engineeredsuper powers, the hyrbids eluded their captors.For many years, the clones lived in the undergroundwith the aid of infamous activist Abbie Hoffman. #T99001aproved difficult to deal with, and Hoffman Eventuallyused the whole gang as a bargaining chip. The hybrid prototypes were captured and reprogrammed,as part of the MK ULTRA Monarch subproject. They were placed into families, where they lived 'normal'lives through their teenage years...#A6588, Crash Delano, began receiving messages fromdeceased government scientists. He rediscovered his'lost past' and with help from beyond, made contactwith his 'brothers'. Crahs was told of the impending artificial apocolypse, which the secret government will use to establish their one world order. The boys reformed their musical act under thedirection of their invisible master. They called the group in "The Atomiks", and today, these hybrids maybe the only hope for the human race.Recently, under the ever present guidance of theinvisible cruft, The Atomiks constructed project X-9,to fulfill dire technical shortcommings of the early hybrid. X-9 is currently in the beta testingstage, and playing rhythm guitar in the band.
