Biography[edit]
Background and music career[edit]
Goren was born in The Bronx, New York City, on January 14, 1975, but grew up in Oreland, Pennsylvania. He played in several local bands as a youth. While Goren was still in school, a friend introduced him to music sequencers, and he began writing music with one in his spare time. In 1991, Goren joined the punk band Fracture, and he remained with them until 1995. Later he started performing shows as Atom and His Package, consisting of himself, a B.C. Rich guitar, and his QY700 music sequencer.
In 1997 he released his first album, named The First CD, on Bloodlink Records. He released several more albums and EPs and has performed on several compilations and self-released EPs while touring internationally.
Personal life[edit]
Simatic step 5 software crack. In April 2003 Goren was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. This led to his decision to stop touring as Atom and His Package. Goren performed his final show under that name on August 29, 2003, in Philadelphia. After that show, he released his last album, Hair: Debatable. On November 1, 2008, Goren performed as Atom and His Package at The Fest 7 in Gainesville, Florida, and was scheduled to return for Fest 16. Goren currently plays with the band Armalite.

Punk Uprisings, Vol. 1 is a collection inspired by E!'s television show of the same name. Appropriately, the album features 25 bands that have appeared on the show, all of them new '90s punk bands like the Queers, Wynona Ryders, and Mr. T Experience. It works quite well as a sampler, providing an effective introduction to a number of underground, independent bands of the mid-'90s
