''The Space Age Playboys'' is the fifth album by the band Warrior Soul. It was first released in the UK on Music For Nations in 1994. It was released the following year in North America. The combination of Kory Clarke's acidic lyrics and new guitarist XFactor's (aka Gene Poole, aka Alex) punk-tinged buzz-tone created a fresh new sound, dubbed Acid Punk. The British influence of XFactor's hard-driving guitar gave Clarke what might have been the perfect backdrop for his brilliant rants. Mixed by Ben Grosse, the album sold well in Europe but was not promoted in the US. For reasons never explained, XFactor left. Rumours of a rift followed. XFactor still refuses to discuss why he left. Shortly after, the band broke up. Following the dissolution of Warrior Soul in 1995, singer Kory Clarke formed a new band with the name Space Age Playboys. The album was remastered and re-released with bonus tracks on CD and MP3 in 2009 by Escapi Music. ==Critical reception== In 2005, ''The Space Age Playboys'' was ranked number 323 in ''Rock Hard'' magazine's book of ''The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums of All Time''. Metallica's Lars Ulrich has rated it his favourite album, and invited Warrior Soul to open for them at Donington. 2006 Escapi Bonus Tracks: ''All songs written by Clark / MacLenahan / X. Factor '' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Space Age Playboys」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
