Not one perfect and the rest bad, but more masterpiece to pretty good to dogshit to hot dogshit to ok.
Powerman 5000.
Is hot dogshit better or worse than ambient dogshit?
Yes, because the dogshit molecules are obviously more jiggly in hot dogshit and that's just gross.
Especially true. Their latest album released like two or so years ago was really just an ear-in-ear-out experience. Not a damn memorable track from that album. They're releasing a new one this year and it's probably going to be the same.
Between the two brothers (vocalist of Powerman 5000 is related to Rob Zombie), Rob Zombie has the better end of the deal.
Forget the third Zombie brother, the lead singer for The Union Underground, whose only kinda good song is basically about how stupid the audience is and just make him a millionaire already...
To go into a bit more detail for what my actual knowledge is:
Tonight the Stars Revolt!: Ever loving masterpiece
Transform: Little more mindless, still really really good
Somewhere on the Other Side of Nowhere: I really like about half the album, most Powerman fans dont
Copies Clones & Replicants: Uh oh... absolutely trash cover album?...?? Where did that come from?
Builders of the Future: They've lost their identity, they have lost their vibe... still liked 2 of the songs. Overall a let down.
New Wave: Absolute utter trash. All of it. Never gave any of the songs a second listen. Actually actively avoided them.
The Noble Rot: One song I REALLY like, a couple I can stand to listen to if Youtube puts it up automatically, the rest just pretty bad.
Rob is definitely the OG Zombie. He just has more raw visceral roaring power in his energy. Spider One is, well, he is the dude from the video for When Worlds Collide (part of the absolute masterpiece collection that came with Tonight the Stars Revolt).
I would also say, moderately recently, I saw Allegoria, and I much prefer Spider One's B horror movie vision over Rob's "look at my wife" movie style. In fact, I would be pretty confident saying that Spider One's musical career trajectory and Rob's horror movie trajectory are VERY similar.
