Machine Head - The Blackening
This could be huge. Perfect combo of thrash, industrial and DM. It's as if Slayer were trying to play like Opeth.

I figured I'd hate this album as I really do dislike Machine Head, but somehow they've managed to pull off a good album. Its a notably solid release with some really good material. Its not really Machine Head-esque.

Like some of you have noted, the vocals can be gruffy, but the death metal growl is par for the course for this type of exteme metal. On cuts like "Now I Lay Thee Down" which alternates between straight singing and screaming, vocalist Flynn comes across endearing especially late in the song, when his voice cracks on the chorus, and creates a cool as sh$t industrial effect. Most singer would have used a different take, but it works for the song.
