 | | Helmet's album, Aftertaste, is twelve tracks of conviction that re-define the scope of what people regard as "heavy." Produced by Barkmarket guitarist Dave Sardy (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Cop Shoot Cop), Aftertaste cuts through the morass of cookie-cutter-alterna-music now being heard in a shopping mall near you. |
 | | Helmet's debut album on AmRep, Strap It On, was released in the fall of 1990, and underground rock fans marveled at John Stanier's propulsive drumming, the tightly-wound attack of bassist Henry Bogdan and guitarist Peter Mengede, and Page Hamilton's searing guitar work and hostage-taking vocal style. |
 | | Aftertaste bristles with the same energy and hunger that the band had when they recorded their debut album Strap It On six years ago between flipping burgers, tending bar, and driving limousines. |
