MACHINE HEAD

Release Year: 1997
Artist Origin: USA
Style: modern explosive angry groovy metal

three years in making after the groundbreaking debut has blown out the metal world, ten track sophomore full-length effort sounds more refined and crystalized, avoiding too evident drift from the previous agenda, regardless of provocative title, offering the crushing punch to the brim with abrasive riffs, dominating and always intricate rhythm pulse, thick tension in the air, and pure unadulterated heaviness, thus ambitiously pushing the boundaries of modern sound, at the same time altering familiar grooves, rhythmic tricks and moshpit friendly guitar work with straightforward thrash assaults, while trademark seething anger and multidimensional vocals make this slab another brightly shining moment in an impressive MH career
