Most sludge metal from New Orleans sounds like this

I feel like if Dopesick had been the Eyehategod album in this match-up, it would have been closer. But since it isn't, I'm giving Acid Bath the sweep.

Acid Bath - 6
Eyehategod - 0

God damn! I figured Eyehategod had enough cred to at least get ONE vote! I wasn't expecting this sweep.

Nah. I like Eyehategod, but they lost fair and square.

With no comeback in sight for Eyehategod, Acid Bath win 6-0. Next up thanks to Metal Connoisseur is the first battle of its kind and that is a 3-way-battle featuring just one band and that band is Machine Head.

Machine Head Burn My Eyes 1994


Versus

Machine Head The Blackening 2007


Versus

Machine Head Unto the Locust 2011

First of all, I was actually gonna suggest a one band battle. I guess now I'm chopped liver, but oh well. Second, Machine Head have a new album?! ****! This battle was gonna be hard enough. Now I have to listen to another album? **** you all!

I`m surprised nobody came up with a one band battle before as its quite obvious, as most people spend most of their time discussing which is a bands best album. But hell I love Robb Flynn and Machine Head.....I just need to listen to The Blackening again and the new album.

I wanted to do an Acid Bath vs since they have 2, but I didn't know we could.

I'm gonna sit this out. I don't like Machine Head. Vio-lence are 1000× better imo.

I think this is basically gonna be a battle between The Blackening and the new album for me. Burn My Eyes starts off better, and would be be better in general except that half way through I'm kinda bored with it. It just gets kinda monotonous, but The Blackening is much more diverse.

Part of me wants to say that Burn My Eyes' just sounds "more metal" and kicks more ass than The Blackening, but since it's really just Pantera worship, I don't think it should get any credit for that. Of course, The Blackening followed the current trends as much as Burn My Eyes did too, so... But Machine Head in general (hell, Vio-lence weren't exactly original either) has been chasing whatever trends happened to be popular, so it is what it is. They still kick ass, even if I don't respect them as a band.

I'm listening to the new album now, and it's of the same general quality as The Blackening at least.
