I am not quiet sure but I think I saw them supporting T? in 95 ?
I think that was a band called “SIC”. It was the band Rick Warwick set up after THE ALMIGHTY split back then.
They didn’t get up to much as far as I remember. An E.P. or two. That was about it.
THE ALMIGHTY’s first 2 albums are a bit cock-rock alright. “BLOOD, FIRE & LOVE” is OK. But “SOUL DESTRUCTION” is still a class album.
“POWERTRIP” was a different kind of animal altogether. Definitely their best release.
“CRANK” and “JUST ADD LIFE” were good but they tried to change their sound to a more punky style than before. Didn’t really work too well for them. so they packed it in.
He re-grouped THE ALMIGHTY again a couple of years later. Made 2 more albums… “THE ALMIGHTY” self-titled and “PSYCHO-NARCO”.
The self-titled is a cracker of an album. Never did get my hands on the last one. Very poorly distributed.
You can listen to most of their stuff for free on their website. But you will need RealPlayer to listen I think.

@Jobrok
don’t have all the albums you mentioned but i do have some and i disagree with everything you said. sorry. Crank and Just Add Life are ther best albums, the rest are for too rock n’ roll for my liking. (sic) released one album on a japaneese lable, managed to get a copy off the drummer in a trade for some photos of gigs they did that i was at, fair trade and a damm fine album.

I think i agree with Jobrock as well. Powertrippin’ is by far their best album, although Crank isn’t bad. I think Just Add Life was the downward turn. Blood Fire and Love is a good debut and Soul Destruction is just classic early 90’s metal.

Sorry about the fuck-up in the thread before this post. Don’t know what I was doing…
Everyone to their own Kill_Hill…
I don’t really have an opinion on BLOOD, FIRE & LOVE. I found it all a bit too cheesy for my liking.
I got SOUL DESTRUCTION when it came out and absolutely loved it. Granted I was into more straight forward rock’n’roll/metal back then.
But when POWERTRIPPIN’ came out I was just blown away at how much they had progressed from that album.
I love CRANK! Some savage tracks on that album. I’d rate it as their second best after POWERTRIPPIN’.
Ricky Warwick is a master at writting killer riffs. Check out “BROKEN MACHINE” and “IN LOVE (WITH REVENGE) from the self titled. You won’t be dissappointed.
I didn’t get into JUST ADD LIFE as much as the previous albums. I don’t know why? It’s a good album. I just knew after hearing it that the bands days were numbered.
I also have RICKY’s first solo album.
Absolute load of Rhino Pooh!!!!!
Rubbish mellow acoustic self indulgent drivel… AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE
