Reviews
Highly Recommended - "...when firing on all eight cylinders Helmet lurches boldly between Prong's mechanized coolness and the visceral industry of Skin Chamber....heavy and loud....an industrial strength alternative to McSpirit..", "...tightfisted speed-thrash, but without the overblown melodrama of the metal scene....Hamilton bellows with the best of them and the band brings a stripped-down punkiness to its riffing..." - Rating: B-, 3.5 Stars - Good Plus - "...A marvel of precisely channeled aggression...Strict, ingenious arrangements...Helmet's exultantly ferocious sound boasts the brontosaurian backbeat of metal and the vehemence of hardcore...makes Metallica sound like the Archies...", "...the loud, thudding simplicity of this disc is downright liberating--like trains having sex....a chunk of rock & roll so powerfully succinct and perfect that it'll make future Helmet records irrelevant. Wow..."
