id say check out the studio version, this live version aint good but the track is amazing and was a great anti tune to all them frikkin songs around that time that contained the ubiquitous james brown sample.
the soul master would be proud as he spins the road block h aint gonna stop he's gonna take a pop!
What a terrible noise. Noone can call this music, bloody awful. They should make criminals go to these concerts as punishment, instead of jail-much bigger detterent.
Now I understand why so many good bands give up,, just cant connect to a new audience, or perhaps there on stage performance lacks in little 'i dont know what'
I would have liked to see that , but after watching this maybe not..
4 concerts, 5 days best one in London as Vestan Pance. The crowd was hostile at Reading, but then they nver liked Tack>>head or the Butthole Surfers either. Probably more interested in Wane Husseys Trousers!!!
Hey man, do you have that video of them playing Inject Me here in the US? It used to be on the Tube, but it's long gone. It was the best PWEI live video, I wish I'd captured it.
I bloody love the poppies. I had a ticket to see them in bristol on the amalgamation tour and I found out on the day of the gig that PWEI had cancelled and called it a day. I still bloody love 'em though! Every body's happy man we're bulletproof!!!!!!!!
Some of their songs were great, some not so great, such as this one (apart from the funky drummer, but it's a shit song really!) However, probably one of the best names for a band ever!
I think your missing the point hortobaghyi - they were anything but shyte. They were great fun but also talented aswell - the majority don't get it - the privileged few do.
oh man what can i say. i was in this crowd and the missiles were well-intentioned...atmosphere was electric-went out and bought this is the day this is the hour this is THIS and never looked back :-)PS if anyone has the ep pwei-zation contact me!!!!
you still interested in the pwei-zation ep? - 7 inch vinyl with 92 degrees, preaching to the perverted remix and def con one remix, if so make me an offer 0 its in good nick
god, the amount of missiles. my bloke hurld a lemon rind at gwen stefani at glast n it bouncd off her tit. is funny in one way, but rotten in anuva. pwei wikid.
poppies always sound ahead of their time as the years go on, they were doing what would become popular, but in a blender of course, their sense of sampling is brilliant
I recognise that video. It was the summer of '89, definitely. What a fantastic gig. I bought the video tape from an advert in the back of the NME but it never turned up for 6 months, I had to get the NME to chase the guy up in the end! Glad I did. I will try to find time to upload the rest one day if anyone's interested.
Shit yeah, I'd love to see it. I wish they did a proper video for this song- next to Can U Dig It this was my favorite one. They were never all the big in the states.
I love that they don't give a crap if the audience gives them a hard time, they're going to press on, and anyone who does'nt dig it can piss off!
And oh god, shirtless Clint with the leather trousers again.I am foaming at the mouth with excitement!! A total rock god who knows inherently that the right people in the crowd are totally feeling him.
"Here's a biscuit for ya...that's about all you're worth...hungry?" PWEI were hardcore man! So much junk flying up the stage at them, yet they kept on. That audience deserved a downed powerline and a flash flood.
