Prepare to be catapulted into the future-past as Powerman 5000, the veteran industrial metal monsters, unleash their latest sonic onslaught with their new single “1999.” This electrifying track serves as the harbinger for their forthcoming studio album, “Abandon Ship”, set to drop on May 10, 2024 and available for pre-order now.
With “1999,” Powerman 5000 invites listeners on a thrilling journey to the glory days of apocalyptic paranoia, melding irresistible nostalgia with doomsday fatalism to create an end-of-the-world dance club hit fueled by high-octane industrial metal.
Frontman Spider One’s diabolically creative mind takes center stage, delivering a sonic landscape that feels both familiar and audacious. This single promises to be a revelation for fans both old and new, already evidenced by the fact that the band has added it to their live set with extremely positive results.
