[RockJim72]

It reminds me a bit of Alice Coopers "Feed my frankenstaein" .... I just love this kinda Rock'N'Roll!

[kerryburnout]

@RockJim72 There's a good reason for that - Zodiac Mindwarp co-wrote 'Feed My Frankenstein' around the same time as this.

[RockJim72]

@kerryburnout Thanks for the info ... No wonder why they sound a bit a like .... :-)

[OllieStench]

@RockJim72 Zodiac co-wrote Feed My Frankenstein with Alice Cooper

[18andreab]

[master0of0time5]

[pisswizzard]

@master0of0time5 making good songs....more than can be said for most of the bands these days. i recommend Hot Leg and Steel Panther to you so you can turn your nose up at them to.........then fuck off :-)

[SallyMander4711]

@master0of0time5 what's the source for that info? 

[adeworks]

@master0of0time5

Eh? They are British and were created by Mark Manning (aka Zodiac Mindwarp). Zodiac Mindwarp was originally a cartoon character invented by Manning.

[OllieStench]

@master0of0time5 not really, they were from England, and were helped out by members of The KLF

[DoubleNullVoid00]

'Hoodlum Thunder' has always been one of my favorite albums or all time \m/

[FreakinSweet86]

Nice to see there's at least one song that isn't an allagory for sex, not that I'm complaining because Zodiac Mindwarp are the Shiznit

[vegetarianpunk]

thanks for the post!

[BobbyJoeThorazine]

Fuckin' A, Baby!

[Rbrownsword]

I beleive they are mates with ethe KLF, check out Raise the Bones Of Elvisd by Inner City Unit for a similar wierdness

[acute7]

that's fucking brilliant!!!

[TeehpodT]

Great tune! It's a crying shame 'Hoodlum Thunder' is not on YouTube.

[mabawsarloupin]

saw them in the QM  glasgow, late eighties i think,,cartoon band, but good at what they do

[Yoth67]

Saw this band support Motorhead back in 1986. Zodiac jumped off stage and puched out 2 skin heads in the front row. Saw him again in May(ish)1987 at the Bristol Bierkeller. Top gig, top band. Check Zodiac in The Idler magazine/book. The Bill and Zeds bad advice coloumn is consistantley hilarious . Also his book, Fucked by Rock is the sleazegrinder at his evil best.

I do love a good anarchist.

Long live the napalm god and his lightening rod.

[keltoibard]

Well spoken Wolfchild.

[irishshako]

@Yoth67 ...nice one, Why the fuck did the skins turn up. I was at a WASP gig in 87 in Dublin and the band threatened to walk off stage if the fookers(punks) didn't stop gobbin.

[RattPatrol1985]

This is fucking great!!!! =)

[superscorpio77]

You said it. And thanks for the info.

[netvideoproduction]

ZODIAC MINDWARP are playing Glasgow 4th July 2008 at THE DOLLHOUSE info and tockets at myspace . com / thedollhouseclub

[orriblebob]

I first saw this lot supporting The Cult at Brixton academy on 28th June 1986. I later saw them again at the Reading festival the same year. It's a shame they don't come over as well on record as they do live.

When they were on stage at Reading, a lovely looking bird was standing on the side of the stage watching them, I saw her again many years later in Emmerdale on TV.Her name was Claire King, It turns out she was going out with one of the band at the time.

[superscorpio77]

Saw Zodiac Mindwarp in Oshkosh, WI in 1988 with Guns N Roses and another band, At the very small Oshkosh Center, before they hit. I was 17. They were raw and wild. They weren't easily interpreted so that made them very interesting. Their titles and lyrics seem hilarious and half serious? Didn't know but that made it fun. All I could remember was these guys were a unique, wild import biker-type band. It is great to see them here on you tube after 19 years!!

[metallooney]

I saw that tour also The other band was UDO the former Accept singer.

[Mark4metal]

You know Zodiac co wrote Feed My Frankenstein with ALice Cooper?

The Zodiac version is on Hoodlum Thunder.

[BadSanta73]

tomorrow belongs to zodiac73

[sabbatio]

Love his voice rough, yet very melodic

[adrianbarratt]

everything that silence says

[Silence262]

This is on the album Hoodlum Thunder, which has a lot of cool tracks like Feed My Frankenstein, President of the United States Of Love, Trash Madonna, and Dr. Jekyll and Me. These guys were overlooked by the mainstream audiences and it's a shame. They are filthy yet polished, nasty and precise. Zodiac Rocks!

[adeworks]

Great! Heard about this but 1st time I've actually heard it. Anyone got Fast Forward the Future to upload? never heard that either.

[COL321]

Excellent track. The promo's a bit basic, imo, but still good to see it. Thanks for posting.

[weasalpj]

Every track I hear by this acid biker from pluto I like. Thankyou very much for posting.
