The Year Grunge Broke - The Kino, Cork May 17th

[Carnage]

I actually bought a Powerman 5000 album. It was not good. Sometimes it's best that the days of blind buys are over.

I actually bought a Powerman 5000 album. It was not good. Sometimes it's best that the days of blind buys are over.

Never came across one in the wild but I'd have definitely went for something by Rob Zombie's little brother named Spider back in the day of the blind buy (not counting charity shops or Dealz because I've many a blind one under the belt with those and some great finds in there).

I gave half an hour one day in the sound cellar one day with a Cement (well it's chuck mosely, and he is on my two least favourite fnm albums, so surely i couldn't go wrong) cd in my hands before buying a Frontline Assembly album that was surely one of the worst possible things ever ever ever so maybe the universe just had it in for me that day and blind buying is still the same scratchcard buzz it has always been.

It's also cheaper than scratchcards these days

Moseley had no voice, I wouldn't even be tempted by that. What Frontline Assembly album was it, out of interest? They're definitely more miss than hit but have had some good stuff over the years.

I knew nothing about PM5000 beforehand aside from some link to White Zombie (who I could take or leave), it was cheap and I was curious. It was shite.

PM5000 we getting the old Metal Hammer push back in the day on the back of the White Zombie connection. I remember even as a clueless teen thinking they looked gimpy. I never heard a note and something tells me my life isn't too much the worse off for that

I generally like FLA but this was some compilation of ancient shite called Corroded Disorder and I don't think there's even one good tune on it.

Never heard any Powerman 5k that I can remember. I probably did hear some of it back in the day maybe

[Ducky]

Never heard a lick of their music either. Always thought Rob Zombie was overrated shite, and Powerman 5,000 sounds like a shite version of Mega Man.

So that's effectively double shite
