Mega!! Kung Fu Radio (Dreamworks) - Powerman 5000
So the boys left Beantown to become big stars on Dreamworks record label. Who cares if Spider is taking full advantage of his brother Rob Zombie's connections? Who give a damn if they left Boston to move out to LA and become stars? And get over that 90210 thing, you are just jealous. The fact remains that Powerman 5000 kick some major ass. Their "new" album is actually their old album The Blood Splat Rating System (Conscious Records) rerecorded with a couple of extra tracks thrown in for good measure. Trust me, this album is awesome. I'm so fucking tired of people comparing them to west coast hardcore and shitty bands like Korn and Rage Against the Machine. Their sound is unique. It's sort of a mix between Clutch and Parliment. There is not a bad song on the whole album. My favorite tracks are "Neckbone", "Earth v. Me" (the song that won them the WBCN Rock n Roll Rumble back in 1992), "Organizized", "20 Miles to Texas, 25 to Hell", and "Standing 8". Buy it now! You will be happy you did. Don't be fooled by immitations, there is only one Powerman 5000 and they still and always will kick your ass.
