Atomship only got one studio album out, The Crash of '47 on Wind-up Records in 2004, and "Pencil Fight" earned it decent airplay on rock radio around the country. Singer Derek Pardoe wrote it, and it's alternative metal with a chip on its shoulder. It found a second life on the soundtrack of NASCAR 2005: Chase for the Cup.

The American band filmed a video for it late in 2004, just before Atomship came apart, so the clip doubles as a farewell.
