Right in the middle of the MACHINE HEAD week on Tangra Mega Rock, we already have TWO (!!!) album reviews for thРµ bands brand new studio effort 'Unto The Locust'.

And they both are absolutely positive...

"This album is as fierce as an unrehearsed lobotomy, but this is not enough to cook a masterpiece. This is the album’s natural dramatism that turn ‘Unto The Locust’ into a brilliant musical journey. Machine Head no longer write tunes like ‘Davidian’ and ‘Old’, but they have learned to write opus-like songs like ‘Darkness Within’ and ‘Who We Are’. They have converted their anger into an intellectually loaded weapon and they have just pulled the trigger." - writes STIFF (read the entire review).

The result is always either over the top praise, or some bitter rant about how they changed their style. And this is an album that won me over quite hard." - he starts the album review with (read what comes next).
