I think there is a quite a lot of varied opinions on what actually makes a "heavy" band, though some are interpreting it is speed, some the lack of speed, some noise, some just plain old consist thrash
Personally for me it is solid fat sounding riffs so i'd acknowledge some Celtic Frost, Crowbar and some of the earlier Hatebreed material but your perception always changes.
When MH's Burn My eyes came out metal was in a bad way and it was commonly reported as a super heavy guitar album with wall to wall riffs. Nowadays many wouldn't rate it as a heavy album, i still think its a credible suggestion
