The Industrial/Alternative metal band known as Powerman 5000, was formed in the early 90s, in Boston, Massachussets. Their first album, "The Blood Splat Rating System", did recieve great review, but did not sell a lot. By the end of the year, it had only sold 100,000 copies. Powerman 5000 knew that they had to step it up with the next album. In 1997, Powerman 5000 released their debut album "Mega Kung Fu Radio." It recieved great ratings, AND went platinum by the end of the month. Now, even though Powerman 5000 recieved great success from Mega Kung Fu Radio, they thought they could do a whole lot better, and they proved this with their third album "Tonight The Stars Revolt", released in 1999. Because of its hit singles, "When worlds collide", and "Nobody's Real", the album had gone platinum within one week, but that's not all! The album did not recieve one rating under 4/5 stars! In fact, the majority of ratings for the album had given it 5/5 stars!!! It turned out to be the greatest success Powerman 5000 has ever had! In 2001, Powerman 5000 released the album "Anyone for Doomsday?." Its success was only slightly smaller than the success of Tonight The Stars Revolt. But in November of 2001, Drummer Alan Pahanish , and bassist Dorian Heartsong left the band. They were later replaced by drummer Adrian Ost, and bassist Siggy Siursen. In 2003, Powerman 5000 released Transform, which was a major success, and had more success than anyone for doomsday, but smaller success than Tonight The Stars Revolt. In October of 2004, Powerman 5000, released "The good, the bad, and the ugly vol. 1" , which was a compilation of unreleased tracks, and so far, its sales have been great! Powerman 5000 is going to be one of the most famous bands ever in the near future, I know it!
