God this album shreds!!!

[@PadreDeLucifer]

My favourite MH album. You can clearly see the evolution, early signes of how the blackening will sound like.

[@davidpaterson8056]

"Turn it on, fuck the hole and go", the words of philosopher Adam Duce.

[@tumbamarch89]

Robb Flynn, Dave Mcclain, Adam Duche, Phil Demmel: The best MH Line Up ever. From 2003- 201, Machine Head was the best band on earth. Hands down.

[@jesscooney8443]

Fuck I love this record.. time to bust it out again

[@jordancummins3092]

Adam shouting Taco bell at 12:14 is the fucking best.

[@MacGyver_Lamb]

Reminds me of the good ole days of the frontlines. Still love this album.

[@Swampster70]

Tharsh Eats Balls, Osbos, Durt's anal hamsters, PBill, Mike P and a whole host of 'interesting characters.' I miss The Frontlines. Met so many fun people on there. I was on from the mid 90's when Sven ran the board until the day it closed and then for a couple of years on Crumbs' TakeMyScars board.

Everytime I hear someone say the title its like Through the ashes of vampires.

[@Cruelleazy]

This voice!!!!!

@6:08 you can tell he listens to hip hop

[@whoohaaXL]

Of course he does/did. Huge influence on him.

@@whoohaaXL no he said he does

[@whoohaaXL]

Nobody ever talks about using an OD808 or TS-9 in their distortion chain with a noise gate. Most of these bands do that...

[@SantyEscudero]

MH guitar sound is based on a TS9 pushing a Peavey 5150 nowadays an EVH I think

[@RobKingRC]

6505+ ,Ts9 ,Boss NS2 will always be in my arsenal..

[@SpasmAtaK]

@@SantyEscudero I'm not sure if he ever switched to the Ibanez TS9 but he was using a Boss SD1 for sure. No EVH that I've heard of, tho on live they use a 6505 modeled in their AxeFX

[@Swampster70]

It's not like he doesn't show you all of his pedals on the two trays... I don't see either of those pedals you mentioned there.

[@whoohaaXL]

@@Swampster70 It's usually a given. You barely have to touch the gain on the pedal, you mainly just crank the tone and it pushes the tubes into overdrive, creates a lot of noise though, hence the gate. If you're not using AXEFX nowadays then chances are you're using a 5150 or a 6505 with an OD 808 or tube screamer in front of it.

[@TheInfomancer]

Miss Adam :(

[@ianmacrae2749]

[@r_aguilar68]

Hand down the greatest Machine Head album of all time. End of conversation.

Not even close to burn my eyes which is their best and one of best debut LP's of all time

[@jasonriffe6536]

@ i think this is still number 1, because there was nothing out there at the time besides Pantera!!!

@@jasonriffe6536 you can believe that if you must but burn my eyes is their best LP hands down but this LP is up their

[@jasonriffe6536]

@ Bro, My bad I messed up my message!!! I was saying Burn My Eyes the BEST!!!!!!! I also think it stands out because, like for me being 14, nothing besides Pantera was close to that heavy groove!!!!!!! i have been hoping they could get that sound again!!!!

@@jasonriffe6536 (lol) yeah i thats why i was not upset plus i just ordered the CD European version weeks back

[@elarmuzik]

What pedals he habe before fuzz

Is this a good LP?

[@williepoe9026]

I wonder if he ever got a 7 string ,..,?

[@fragallo1188]

This album SUCKS. An ugly copy of PANTERA, Slipknot and Sepultura made in a very mediocre way. The singer is often not in tune. Boring and banal vocal lines. I used to love them.... what a letdown

[@apanapandottir205]

This album is like 20 years old.
