The current line-up of POWERMAN 5000Spider One, Siggy, guitarist Adam Williams (a.k.a. Adam12),drummer Adrian (a.k.a. AD7),and guitarist Mike Tempesta (a.k.a. M.33)are preparing to enter the studio to begin recording the follow-up to their platinum 1999 album, Tonight the Stars Revolt!, for a late 2002 release through Dreamworks Records.

POWERMAN 5000 were, of course, scheduled to drop Anyone for Doomsday? their projected follow-up to Tonight last August 28th, but just two weeks before the release date, the band announced they were heading back into the studio to record new songs for the album. The group's scheduled headlining tour was cancelled, and the album release was postponed indefinitely.
