Metal Man is the Breeders’ Lady Godiva’s Operation. You are thinking they are American band and when this song closes off the album, it makes you wonder where they are from like early the Velvet Underground.
Come to think of it,it might be the original "POD" line-up,that would be sublime.Kind of the artistic level,like Roxy Music with Eno,The Velvets with John Cale,love it.
