Holy fucking god. I just downloaded the new Helmet album, "Monochrome". It doesn't come out until the 18th, and I'm going to buy a copy of it, but I couldn't wait until then.
This album is INCREDIBLE. This is without question, the full-on phoenix return of Helmet. Fans of "Meantime" and "Betty" are going to be stoked as hell, this is what Helmet was meant to sound like. Paige Hamilton has reinvented himself, and has a completely new determination behind his vocals, as well as his guitar riffs. Chris Traynor is back on rhythm guitar, with a new bassist and drummer. This album made me feel like I did the first time I heard "Meantime", I don't know how else to describe it.
I don't know how many of you guys are Helmet fans, but I know you're out there. Once you listen to this album, you're going to rediscover Helmet all over again.
