    9.1.99 Powerman 5000 Pulled From Retail Chains As Tour Rolls On

  • C, F, K, U... four little letters that standing alone don't pack much of a wallop. However, arraigned in one very specific order, they managed to get Powerman 5000's new album pulled from shelves at two of the nation's biggest retail chains. The word, which turns up exactly once on the band's album "Tonight's The Stars Revolt," caught the ear of Cleveland's Kevin Clarke, who had purchased the album for his son at Wal-Mart. Clarke was dismayed to note that despite the use of the four-letter, the album does not carry a parental advisory sticker. Wal-Mart and Kmart refuse to carry albums with parental warning stickers, and both chains have pulled the album from their shelves until a clean edit arrives courtesy of Dreamworks Records. If all this is striking a familiar chord, you may recall that less than three months ago, Clarke successfully lobbied to have Godsmack's debut album pulled from store shelves. In that instance, Clarke (who looks to Wal-Mart as a "save haven" where obscenities and objectionable lyrics dare not tread) found an album with roughly one dozen uses of foul language.

"We thought we'd lived that one down," Powerman 5000 frontman Spider One told MTV News when reminded of the episode. "We thought we'd survived, but it seems to be resurfacing."
