They have a new one that was released yesterday, but this one in 2022, Of Kingdom and Crown is brutal.. Flynn always gets a narly, aggressive tone.. The new one isn't as good..





 
I'll have to check this out. I haven't listened to much beyond Unto the Locust. While that even wasn't my favorite by far, they lost me after that. The early raw shit is my preference. They get a bit too mainstream later on for my tastes, but I get bands doing what they do, especially as they get older and creativity and rage, raw energy dries up, it's to be expected.

In my opinion, Burn My Eyes is a top 100 metal record of all time. They never quite recaptured it's toughness, atitude, and raw aggression.
 
I think the key reason this album is badass is because of Vogg (Decapitated). He upped Machine Head's game on this one.
 
On that second one, sounded a little like he’d been listening to Behemoth.
These guys lost me with the Burning Red and never got me back.

Yeah, I kinda stopped after the Locust album myself.

I saw them with Napalm Death and Obituary when that album came out. No idea who they were. But, they got my attention and Burn My Eyes was quickly purchased. It's definitely an underrated and under the radar album that kicks ass.
