A spin-off of
the Dictators,
MWK has one CD to their credit, the amazing ...And You? Formed in late 1986 by ex-
Dictators Andy Shernoff and
Handsome Dick Manitoba along with fifth
Ramone Daniel Rey (Rabinowitz), the band quickly earned a rep as a great live band in the New York/New Jersey area. Legendary
Dictator/
Manowar axeman
Ross the Boss replaced
Rey in 1989, and the band's CD was released in 1990. Twenty-five minutes of blazing, cleanly recorded punk/metal, the disc is close to perfect, if a bit short. Combining Manitoba's throaty vocals with Shernoff's fast, catchy, hook-filled songs, and hysterically funny (and sometimes chilling lyrics), it is a must.
MWK evolved back into
the Dictators with the return of
Scott "Top Ten" Kempner to the fold in 1991. ~ Geoff Ginsberg, All Music Guide
