Our Take

Helmet's "Live And Rare" album is a rollercoaster ride of heavy riffs and intense energy, showcasing the band's undeniable talent and raw power. From the opening track "In The Meantime" to the blistering live versions of classics like "Unsung" and "Milquetoast", this album is a must-listen for any Helmet fan.

Frontman Page Hamilton's distinctive voice cuts through the pounding drums and crunchy guitars like a knife through butter, delivering each line with a punchy aggression that is impossible to ignore. The live performances capture the band's energy and intensity, making you feel like you're right there in the thick of the mosh pit.

But it's not just the live tracks that make this album stand out. The rare recordings offer a peek behind the curtain of Helmet's creative process, showcasing their evolution as a band and giving fans a glimpse of the magic that happens in the studio.

Overall, "Live And Rare" is a testament to Helmet's enduring influence on the metal scene and a reminder of why they are considered one of the greats. So grab your headphones, turn up the volume, and prepare to be blown away by the sheer force of Helmet's music. This is one album that definitely deserves a spot in your collection.

About the artist

Helmet

Helmet: The Heavy Metal Mavericks Revolutionizing Rock When it comes to innovative heavy metal, Helmet is a name that cannot be ignored. Fronted by the enigmatic Page Hamilton, this New York-based band has been shaking up the rock scene since the late 1980s with their unique blend of thrash, punk, and alternative influences. Known for their signature sound of crunchy riffs, thunderous drums, and Hamilton's distinctive vocal delivery, Helmet has been described as the missing link between Metallica and Fugazi. Their seminal 1992 album "Meantime" is widely regarded as a game-changer in the genre, with tracks like "In the Meantime" and "Unsung" becoming anthems for a generation of angst-ridden metalheads. But Helmet is not content to rest on their laurels. With recent releases like "Dead to the World" and "Seeing Eye Dog," the band continues to push boundaries and defy expectations, proving that they are still as relevant and vital as ever. Whether you're a die-hard metalhead or a casual listener looking to expand your sonic horizons, Helmet is a band that demands your attention. So crank up the volume, throw up the horns, and let Helmet take you on a wild ride through the world of heavy metal. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
