Average Rating: 
Rating: - A mindblowing effort
Man, did Roadrunner USA mess up by letting these guys go. This album might be the best metal release of the year. For those claiming that Machine Head isn't real metal, get over it and take a listen - if this isn't metal, I don't know what is. Bone-crushing riffs, intense drums, and some pretty technical time changes (new for MH) make this album a must-have for any metalhead. Robb Flynn's voice has become, over the years, much more polished melodically, while losing NONE of the spine-tingling ... Read More
Rating: - Long Awaited
I'm a long time metalhead and Machine Head fan. I have every CD they have ever released as far as I know. Anyway, the new one exceeded my expectations by so far its insane. It captures the original MH edge, and adds melody, and complexity. BME was amazing in its day, but TTAOE is better overall. By far the best CD I've bought in a long time, out of hundreds. Standouts on this CD are Imperium, Bite the Bullet, and In the Presense of my enemies. The double bass is back, heavy solos are back....do ... Read More
Rating: - Can you say HUGE!???!
It was a nailbiting few weeks before the realease of this album. I was really scared that Machine Head didnt learn their lesson with Supercharger and that i would be disgusted all over again. I was still hoping that my love for this band and knowing that they have the ability to be absolutely superb, would pull it through......and they SO did!! I must say, Phil Demmel was probably the best decision MH made in the past few years and his involvement delivered probably the best album of the band's career. ... Read More
Rating: - Heavier than Rosie O' Donnell's left leg
I have no idea when this album is supposed to hit stores in the US, but I already have it..so there. Guitarist Ahrue Luster left the band last year after recording 1999`s `The Burning Red`, and 2001`s `Supercharger` while in the fold. Both albums showed a band in an extremely experimantal state. The results were both compelling and repelling. I own both albums and frankly enjoy them, but after hearing TTAOE I find myself wondering just what they were doing. Through The Ashes Of Empires shows flashes of ... Read More
Rating: - This is the best album they've made in 6 years
It's definitely hands down the best in 6 years. Their guitarist that replaced Logan Mader is thankfully gone, good bye, and good riddance. In to replace him is Rob Flynns old bandmate from Violence, and these two definitely make an awesome guitar tag team. The fast riffs that are heard on Burn my eyes and The more things change are back, especially on the songs, 'Left Unfinished', 'Bite the bullet', 'Vim', and 'Imperium' which has a very similar riff that was featured on the first song off the first album, ...
