Yelp.com Review - by dan b.

2.0 of 5 stars. Sad that they are closing after all these years, but they really didn't do much to help themselves.I started going to Atomic in 1990 and left the Milwaukee area in 2000. Since then I've gone back...

Yelp.com Review - by crotchbat ..

2.0 of 5 stars. Easily one of the most overrated record stores in Milwaukee. Snotty 20-something employees, overpriced new AND used releases (I saw records that should've been in a 25-cent bin that were on the racks...

5.0 of 5 stars. I was down visiting my brother who goes to Milwaukee and on the way to his house I saw this record store out of the corner of my eye. I got to his place and I told my friends about it and we all took...

Yelp.com Review - by Nana H.

4.0 of 5 stars. Last September I got tickets to see Common and Q-tip for 10 bucks I know I couldn't believe it- I called the Rave box office I was told they were sold out. I just happened to pass by the store and I...

Yelp.com Review - by Tommy A.

3.0 of 5 stars. I've heard about Atomic Records since I was a kid, and I finally made a trek there. Now, living in Chicago, I have access to numerous strong record stores, and I'm accustomed to visiting Amoeba out...

Yelp.com Review - by Travis S.

2.0 of 5 stars. Overpriced, overblown. Staff rude at times, never asks what you're looking for. The place is only in business because the people that live near it dont have transportation. Theres a few better vinyl...

Yelp.com Review - by Shawn S.

5.0 of 5 stars. I have made the two-hour RT jaunt to Milwaukee solely to visit Atomic Records, it's true. They have more vinyl than most record stores these days -from glam rock to The Shins to Social Distortion, the...

Yelp.com Review - by Adam M.

3.0 of 5 stars. I can't quite say it was the place I remember it from 1997, but it's still a few cuts above average. If this was the worst record store in your mid-size city, you'd be in okay shape. Seems like...

They have and can get everything, but prices suck. by Brad N. at InsiderPages

I don't get why in the post filesharing world, many stores are still asking $12.99 for a CD. You are better off going to Best Buy. Most recording artists wouldn't even charge that much if they had control. I...
