I accidentally bought this album in 1997 thinking it was Rage Against the Machine. Best thing to happen to a 12yo

[@ec7945]

youduarf haha I was 12 also lol I still remember seeing that CD cover on one of those little stations where you can sample a CD before you bought it 😬

[@sventube1000]

My older sister's friend left the CD at my house and that's when i fell in love with heavy metal.

[@andressaldivar2218]

Almost same story here, except I bought Evil Empire, so Machine Head introduced me to Rage Against The Machine, and nowdays two of my favorite bands.

[@aplus1080]

Had the same experience with incubus - there was a death metal band called inkubus or some shit - except it didn't have a happy ending.

[@laurisaarinen1126]

@@aplus1080 That death metal band had the exact same name, Incubus. Now known as Opproprium if i'm not mistaken. They had to change their name, even though they existed before the alt rock Incubus, because that band was so popular. The more famous Incubus is one of my all time favorite bands, i know of the other through my metalhead brother, who in fact loves both.

When comes the time that people will start giving respect to 90's metal again? To me this sounds as good as it did back then!

[@Nostrum84]

i fully agree with richfrommitch, though i have the feeling that even machine head themselves can't compete with their old stuff anymore. their newer stuff isn't bad, don't get me wrong, but it's way more technical and trying to sound "epic" than it needs to and - possibly - than it should.

[@WHY222KSTATIC]

richfrommitch do you understand the complexity of what these "kids" play? Djenting isn't supposed to be the new thing its supposed to be smart and complex. It still is rhythmic too. What you're talking about are math algorithms translated into music notes. Thats why the time frames are weird and changing every measure. It's perfecting something that doesn't need to to be perfected, Still sounds cool though. If you ever decide to listen to stuff like that just remember you're listening to something perfect whether it sounds perfect to you or not.

this demonstrate how ignorant you guys are, you know that even rap music is about going after the sistem and versus police brutality right ? Wu tang clan, triple six mafia, n.w.a, ever heard of em ? Youre doing the same thing that normies do when they talk about metal music, Stop being fucking hypocrites god damn, if you want peoples who are denouncing the actual state of rap/music industry listen to denzel curry, and whats the sense of insulting modern metalheads, i my self, respect 80's/90's metal music, i love pantera, machine head, sepultura, anthrax, exhorder, kreator but i even love bands like periphery, meshuggah, cryptopsy, animals as leaders, strapping young lad, august burns red, sikth, fellsilent, rivers of nihil, alter bridge, glass cloud (just to make some example) . You guys are the only one who are insulting, i respect the story of a genre, this shit should stop, all of what you guys are doing is complaining about the most useless and stupid things ever, don't talk if you don't have a knowledge of what you're talking about.

[@pandyne]

If they made a line chart of "Easiest song to play" and "Heaviest song to play" this is right at the highest point of intersection.

Puritania by Dimmu Borgir

[@alexanderthelame8462]

Dave McClain's drumming is mercilessly/unwieldingly blistering,from track 1 through to the closing strains of track 10-he hit those drums so immaculately powerfully and precisely-it goes down,in my opinion as the single greatest aural display of virtuoso album drumming i have ever heard-and ever will.Dave McClain=greatest drummer,i have ever heard.Beautiful.xxx

A landmark band that happened to spawn right around Peavey’s release of the 5150. That fact and their powerful riffs is reason why this band sounds so monumental. Fun fact: Carcass followed suite on Heartwork and we all know how incredible that record sounds.

You are so right. Revocation is the best band to come out in at least 15 years.

[@AndyB1286]

This is actually really good from Machine Head! I was expecting it to be either 500mph bone-breaking stuff or kinda slow and sluggish, but it's more melodic than I thought it would be and as a band they sound musically tight. A good opening to 'The More Things Change...', I'll have to check the rest of the album out. They're apparently starting work on album 7 soon...

[@unholymetal1303]

I remember buying a tape with "The More Things Change..." back in 1997. Great album, which combined thrash-groove with nu-metal infuences. Heavy as fuck record, and at the same time - spiritual, melodic with brilliant clean singing and crushing riffs. Unforgettable music!

Also Testament's Demonic Refusal, which came out the same year, pretty much invented that whole '''chuggy dissonant breakdown''' thing all the deathcore bands run into the ground.
