I'm curious myself.
Got ya by 2 years.
I do recall Burn My Eyes was being described as the heaviest thing since Slayer or something along those lines. Roadrunner hype machine was in full force on that record. I liked it a lot, but to me, Sepultura's Arise was the first record to make me think "Slayer who?".
^ did everyone have hair like that in the 80's?
Yes, or worse - some of us even had "The Prince Valiant Doo"....
And friggin' white pants, too boot!

Oh agreed - when Vulgar hit a new standard was born IMO.
Is it weird I always think of him as Rob Flynn from Vio-Lence?
Whew. And I thought I was the only one that thought that. I was a huge fan of them back in the day since my band at the time used to cover Eternal Nightmare.
I didn't know that record as well but I actually happened to see them live on the Oppressing the Masses tour and I listened to that record a lot. What an unusual vocalist.
My Coda 5 Deluxe arrived 3 hours ago but I had to be snapped back into realty and take some quick photos. The Coda's real color is not captured by the camera. It has a pearl luminescent copper green hue to it in the light that the camera doesn't catch, except a tiny bit on the lower horn at the tip on 1 picture. It's an overcast and spitting snow day. The strings are set super low to the neck, the neck's thickness front to back is super thin! much like my former Forte 5 or even thinner, I'll take neck measurements when I go put the GHS Precision Flats custom's on and send the measurements to Patrick. Very fast neck! It's an oiled neck.This Coda 5 Deluxe definitely says "High Quality" big time!!!
Ice, Congrats on the new Coda 5 Deluxe
bwahahahahaha!!!! nice look there leif garret.
Hey, at least I was sporting an Iron Maiden shirt & rocking a Ric doubleneck...
But that still doesn't excuse the white pants....
That is why I liked them so much back then. Sean Killian's vocals were so different that they made them stand out as so much different than all the other bands. I was glad I got to see them at L'Amour the one time but I can't remember what year it was. It was all a haze back then
When Phil Demmel joined Machine Head, I went nuts since I was always a fan of his back from Vio-Lence and his input really helped on The Blackening.
For some reason I have just not absorbed the later Machine Head records yet. I know they've been doing some good stuff since Through the Ashes... - I just need to put these on repeat a few times.
Oh, and every time I see the title The Blackening, I think of....
