Who said Thrash was on its way out? From the first listen, the first riff of 'Clenching The Fists Of Dissent', you could tell that this was not so. Since Machine Head's début, 'Burn My Eyes' in 1994, they have done what they do best. Playing top-notch Thrash Metal. And their latest effort 'The Blackening' is definitely their best release so far.
This is just an amazing album! Ive always loved MH, even in their ''nu metal'' phase, but The Blackening is probably the album of their career! Just brilliant pummeling metal from start to finish, and definitely one of the metal albums of the decade! I gave this album a rating of 10, and it deserves that easily.
