The God Machine

I'm very surprised this band has never been mentioned on MB. I downloaded their two albums yesterday, Scenes From The Second Storey and One Last Laugh In A Place Of Dying, and they both pretty much blew my mind to bits. In fact i've seen both of these albums mentioned in 'greatest albums of the 90's' and 'greatest albums of all time' lists in magazines and online blogs and i can pretty much see why. Their music could be skull-crushingly heavy on one song, and a beautiful emotive whisper on another and all held together through breath-taking musicianship, vision and intensity.

Here's some tracks for you to be amazed by:

Boring crap.

Not bad at all.

Don't mind DH, he just dislikes anything of resembling quality.

I enjoy them, but my mind isn't exactly blown by them. They're good, but a bit overhyped by critics.

Anything Alternative Press praises is something to question.

DH you wouldn't know good music if it walked right up to you and had sex with you. Otherwise stick to metalcore and shut up.

I wouldn't say they're overhyped by critics, the critics hardly ever seem to mention them nowdays. I know tons of bands are labelled 'underrated' nowdays but this lot truely are, which is a shame.
