I think it's that they're pretty much trying to elevate what is essentially blue collar guitar-bashing to an extent that Machine Head simply has no business trying to do. They just sound ridiculous on this album, and it only got worse as their albums progressed if I remember correctly. I think I'm gonna go back and listen to
Burn My Eyes.
