Anyone for Doomsday? is an excellent transition from Tonight the Stars Revolt! to Transform. It's a shame this album was not officially released, as it is, in my opinion, one of their strongest works. AFD? plays faster and more clear than the trippy TTSR and is more experimental and true to the old PM5K sound than their newest Transform.
Megatronic, The Future That Never Was, and Tomorrow Is yesterday are my personal faves. The closing track delivers the usual "outro" in tradition of most PM5K albums; it's a track that leaves you with a good taste in your mouth when the album concludes. Megatronic is perhaps the most memorable on the CD, sounding a little like Powerman's older works yet brandishing a unique feel that is continued on neither this album nor the next.
I highly recommend this lost gem; buy it if you can or download it. PM5K fans and new listeners alike should benefit from this fine piece of music that unfortunately was chosen not to be released.

Powerman 5000 Still Has It!!!! Should have put this CD out., June 23, 2003
This review is from: Anyone for Doomsday? (+1 Bonus Track) (Audio CD)
Humm.... I figured that this CD would have never been put out at all because of the 9/11 thing but it was released. You can order this CD off of the Powerman 5000 web site. Oh trust me this CD is worth buying. I am pritty sure everyone has heard the song Bombshell, well that is just one of the many songs that are amazing on this CD. The song "The One And Only" is really good it is driving and fast and hard, ya know everything we want in a PM5K album. What took me by suprize is the fact that PM5K put a song on here that is an interlude. 34 seconds of something weird. Oh ya and the song Rise, 54 ... seconds long, also another weird mover by PM5K. Well the only reason i gave it 4 stars is because Powerman 5000 never released this CD. FIrst off the CD is great and it is much better than the new one Transform. Transform is just a halfbaked idea and never really amounted to [anything], but that is just my opinion. But overall this is the best CD since Tonight The Stars Revolt!.
