- Zodiac Mindwarp & The Love Reaction - Prime Mover (Video*).
Featured on the 1988 studio album 'Tattooed Beat Messiah & the 'Sleazegrinder' compilation video.
Remastered Audio*
I’m 56 and when I bought this everyone around me thought this was awful…I still listened to it then and all these years later! What a fabulous record!!!
Same thing. I loved this song.
Heard this the very first time on Much Music WAYYYYYYYYYYY back, immediately bought, the rest of the album ain;t too shabby , what today's rock music is missing - This type of attitude and soul and feel.
Awfully awesome maybe...I used to blast this loud enough to make my ears ring & your friends had zero musical taste...😎🤘
I thought you were going to say "still awful"...
Me too but I am 55.
God I loved them,back in the good old days. 51 and still rocking it.🤘🤘🤘
People need to take this kind of music more seriously
One of the greatest opening lines in rock history!
Fantastic energy in this track. The opening riff in particular sounds to me like a slightly faster Living after midnight by judas priest
Love these guys. If nothing else you figure they would have made it as extras on a Mad Max movie.
I’ll never forget seeing this video for the first time back in ‘88. I had just come back home from some lame ass telemarketing job I had at the time, and this was the first thing I saw as I turned on the TV. I just about passed out from laughing so hard. I thought it was brilliant. The jury may still be out on whether or not this was parody, but I just don’t see how any band that takes themselves seriously could even be capable of making a video like this. I’ve always thought this was a glorious piss-take on everything that was popular at the time, and it was much needed as far as I was concerned.
It still makes me laugh all these years later.
One of the best music videos ever! Pure entertainment!
I’m pretty sure it would be banned these days
Bit of trivia... Video directed by Ade Edmondson, of The Young Ones and Bottom fame. Love this song, album, band, and video.
Jimmy Caulty was also half of the KLF. It was his police car that wrote and sung Doctorin' The Tardis and also starred in many KLF videos.
I was lucky enough to get backstage and meet zodiac and cobalt ❤
If that Lobo film ever finally gets made, this song would be great for the soundtrack. It's clearly how the main man feels about himself lol.
They were the 1st band I ever saw live in concert...They opened for GNR who opened for Maiden....Great times....\m/ \m/ Rock On!!!
I remember buying Tattooed Beat Messiah immediately after hearing "Prime Mover" played at a record store I was at in '88. In retrospect, ZODIAC MINDWARP & THE LOVE REACTION ("Skull Spark Joker", "Planet Girl", "Driving on Holy Gasoline" Fuhgeddaboudit!) were sorta STEEL PANTHER before SP, imo. But a total parody of themselves. 'Shame they totally non-existent commercially. 👍
Killer classic that will always rock.
I don't think there is another album that I listened up and down as many times as Tattoed Beat Messiah! Haven't listened to Zodiac Mindwarp for a long time now but I still totally dig their epic classics and I still own this CD. MTV's Headbangers Ball had Prime Mover, Backseat Education and Planet Girl on rotation for a long time, their label must have invested a shitload of money in this band yet somehow they never made it in the US.
Too 'British'?
maybe because they actually suck.
@@TheFissionchips YOU SUCK !
@@DMSProduktions That and too anti establishment.
@@jamesian-allen8725 im so offended lol

Living after midnight 😎🤘
It's 2018 and they never fail to Rock my home
The lip-sink in parts is soooo bad BUT, before you shoot me down, I'm 54 and LOVE the Mindwarp! After all these years, this song (and the rest) still hit the "right note" and I do not understand how they didn't "make it" to the big time. Perhaps they were just too much of a parody but they, for me, are greatly missed
Met him after a gig at the first hard rock hell. He was baby sitting ten year old son. Nice bloke, called Paul
This video is everything I hoped for and more.
Legends
Upon my resurrection on Easter Sunday. 2014 In the Hospital (Prison) that One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest..Was filmed in
Lol, takes me back to my youth..
Great Band, love this record since I bought it in the 80s, Reminds me a lot of Alice Cooper
I fucking miss this band and the 90s - im OLD !
shake off that mind set . . no such thing as "old".
You're only as old as the girls you feel.
Saw him in Southend, mid 90's, gr8 little show.
Underrated gem
Great song and amazing volume sound, thank you for share. 🙂🤘
yes great powerfull sound !
This is one of the funniest videos ever made
Brilliant
TOP 1000 SONGS OF ALL TIME. Such fun.
Zodiac Mindwarp Rocks!!!!
great band! nazi style band aaahh aahh! great zodiac mindwarp i like !from 1987
Don't hear this on the radio much anymore!!
that ain't no garbage, baby. Its SLAM THUNDERHIDE!!
Outrageous.
Definitional sleaze. It doesn't get any better.
more cowbell
Shocked to learn these guys were from the UK - they look like they could've come from my neighborhood growing up. LOVE LOVE LOVE that drummer. Yum!
Yeah. For the longest time I thought Prime Mover meant like a big shot or man with the plan. But in Britain it actually means a big rig semi truck. Hence the guys busting through the wall on a big truck (though that looks like a British army heavy truck or “lorry” as they say. Still the meaning of the song could have a double meaning.
@@mattkaustickomments
"Prime Mover" is a term used in theological arguments for God, borrowed from Aristotle. Manning is a pretty smart, well-read guy so I've always figured that was what he was referencing. He's basically saying, "I am the god of fuck" in this song, and the video brings that out even more.
Forget Steel Panther, this was the original hair metal comedy band! :p
true,but still Panther is awesome
Motley Crue toured with them and then stole their image, 30 year later Steel Panther stole their act. They're still better than both though.
zodiac mindwarp are zodiac mindwarp, steel panther they are other thing not arrivable ! i saw steel panther here in Bologna near my house, yes not bad but zodiac mindwarp are other story!
I’m amazed Panther are still going. Very thin joke! Their lyrics are not clever although funny perhaps once.
brilliant
dirty rock n roll!!!! yeah!
Now THIS is RAWK! \m/
the first coming of rob zombie, man he must be pissed rob stole his idea.
Ty Gary Davies on TOTP May 1987 and sounds of the '80s. Brill.
Rock an Roll, ahh takes me back to my younger days.
Utter Class they don't make music like this anymore.
Great tune
"Sounds like a #1 hit tune all right"
Best pop song ever.
Crazy kickass fun xD !
Hell yeah!
to use your laser beam eyeballs to mildly inflame a fake teenage girl's teddy bear is to tell the world i am beyond a god ... i am greater than the universe .. behold the prime mover
Greatest gods of rock, all hail ZM!
If there’s a better definition of rock n roll I’m all ears!
The video was directed by Ade Edmonson.
Its very Bad News
@@mattridgley9095 Alan Metcalf?
@@toddclayton Painter and decorator
Actual sings like Vim Fuego too. 😁
Warrior of Ghenghis Kahn!,
I love your band
THESE GUYS ARE NUCKIN' FUTS!!!
Teacher's heads blowing up lol.
❤️❤️
2:25 She Devil got me here.
"Well, I love TV and I love T.Rex"
What an offensive video - great😁😁😁😁!
High school, 1987-ish, for about half a minute.
I wonder if this is where Steel Panther got the idea for their band. They just take to the next level and are funnier than hell as a result. If you haven't heard them, check out their video "Death to All But Metal"
This song is very deep...sensitive and meaningful.... and it embraces me in love and sweetness....
hahaahhaahahhahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!
Lets fucking rock man
this shit rocks like hell!
me too treeman72, on cassette!
FUCKING BRILLIANT........!!!!
Didn't realize at the time how Alice Cooperish this is. Not that that's a bad thing.
12 people have no joy in their hearts.
Ja need more old scholl rock
Out-Alicing Alice Cooper. Loved it then. Love it now.
I guess that's why Alice ended up recording one of their songs. ;)
I saw them u
Opening up for guns and roses
Really amazing and funny american bad taste. Love it !!!!!
Yann le-corf
They are from London.
But the bad taste is typically american.
I wonder where the Darkness got their ideas from?
Bring back the 1980s.
Would you believe Jimmy Cauty played guitar for this group of lunatics before forming the KLF?
The girls all look hotter before the transformation lol
Didn't Zodiac write a book about their adventures on the road? They should make a film out of it... it would beat the Dirt
It's called "Fucked by Rock: The Unspeakable Confessions of Zodiac Mindwarp" written under his real name, Mark Manning.
You have your 80s videos. This is 80s+.
Spinal Tap are real! 😄😎
Were these guys in "Escape From L.A."?
I want his hat.
Didn’t a couple members of this group becomeThe KLF. The video was directed by Ade Edmondson!
And not many of them know that, it has badnews all over it..
Yes, Jimmy Cauty played guitar with this lot before joining Bill Drummond to form the KLF.
I remember nothing of this album.😂
Living after midnight intro?
Great tune. Audio cuts off before the end?!?!! Just saying.
Totally inappropriate, i lovvvve it, haha
Ils feraient un tabac à notre époque.......Like Steel Panther 😊👍🏻
So bad, it's good lol!
TTTeam, make sure to mark this as a def DO vid. the song desire's a better vid. out
They look like they all would smell like ball sweat and ale.
(1:25) TEDDY BEAR KILLER!!! 🐻
