    Rating:
    American Machine Head delivers a very promising debut in "Burn my eyes" and it's nothing but trash metal; some hard, fast & angry stuff here although it slows down sometimes.
    Like said the music is very aggressive mostly but the riffing isn't just some speed-spasm crap, some of the riffs are so great you just wanna go beat your neighbour to death or something.
    Vocalist Robb Flynn has a very angry voice but it fits really perfect for this stuff and he changes style a lot.
    This would've been a perfect album if it weren't for "Real eyes, realize, real lies" where it gets a little out of hand with some really annoying samples from TV/Radio or whatever, and "Death church" is a little boring in my opinion.
    But do buy this for gods sake, it beats most other trash easily, especially "Davidian" & "Old" are worth getting the album for.
