Description
• Third studio album from Scottish new metal band The Almighty.
• FOR FANS OF: MOTÖRHEAD, WILDHEARTS.
Although initially inspired by punk, when Scottish school friends Stump Monroe (drums), Floyd London (bass) and Ricky Warwick (guitar, vocals) joined forces with guitarist Tantrum in 1988, they chose a harder rocking, heavy metal sound.
As well as the singles 'Addiction', 'Over The Edge' and 'Out Of Season', this expanded, deluxe reissue of 'Powertrippin' includes the B-Sides 'Blind', 'Bodies' (originally by the Sex Pistols), 'Insomnia', 'In A Rut' (originally by The Ruts) and 'Fuckin' Up' (originally by Neil Young and Crazy Horse). Live versions of 'Takin' Hold', 'Jesus Loves You...But I Don't' and 'Powertrippin' illustrate what a powerful band The Almighty have always been on stage. The bonus disc also includes demo versions of 'Free 'N' Easy' and the title track from Soul Destruction: which was never officially recorded or appeared on the final album. Plus there's even time for an acoustic take of Neil Young's 'Rockin' In The Free World'!
This release features a fully illustrated booklet, complete with detailed liner notes from Malcolm Dome based on interviews with the band.
