Strap it on! That was the first Helmet album I bought, and I absolutely loved it. It is very repetitive, but I love industrial metal, so I didn't really mind that aspect of it. Lots of killer songs like Sinatra, Rude, Bad Mood, and Blacktop. By far Helmet's heaviest album.
Aftertaste was pretty poor IMO. Like 4 decent tracks, and the rest is just mindless, boring alternative music. If that was the best they could come up with, then it probably wasn't a bad thing that they broke up. Still interested in hearing some Page Hamilton solo stuff, though.
