As of 10:15 PM Friday 6th 2026 The Atom Jacks civil defence unit has stood down. Peace has been achieved and the era of atomic threat is over.
Many thanks to everyone who attended our final breifing, and special thanks to @bluespectreband and @theeerielondon for sharing the stage with us one last time.
Music will remain online via our bandcamp and physically (while stock lasts) with @otitismediarecords
We would like to say thank you to everyone who's watched and listened over the last eight years and to everyone who's invited us to play. Special thanks to Endless Summer Brighton who hosted multiple detonations, including our first ever gig in 2017, Stay Sick, The Mandelbrot Shakes, Worthing Surf Fest, all our friends and family who always turned up, all the bands we've played with and too many others to list.
The Atom Jacks are High Frequency Operator Jamie Hewitt, Low Frequency Operator Lyn Gasper and Timing Co-ordination Officer Sam Hoare.

THE FINAL 'BANG!
THE DAMN SHEBANG 10TH BIRTHDAY / FINAL GIG
Ahead of Lyn's moving away next year, we've decided that our 10th birthday next month will be our last show (at least for the foreseeable future).
It's been one hell of an adventure, and we'll all be forever grateful for everyone we've met, played with, every venue we've played in, every promoter we've played for and most of all, everyone who watched us play.
The four of us are all still best of friends, and will still be playing with each other in one lineup or another going forward, but after 10 years it's time to put The Damn Shebang to bed.
So if for anyone who wants to catch us one last time, this'll be the one!
