I think that Aftertase is the best Helmet album by a long shot.
That's an interesting thought. Why do you like it more than their other stuff? It definitely marks a shift in "feel" for them.
might have something to do with the production, but it's also probably their least heavy/poppiest album. I don't know, for me it just totally clicks. Betty would come in second and then maybe Strap It On. Don't care for Meantime, or the new stuff, although I haven't listened to much of the new stuff. Oh, also the lyrics on Aftertaste are like my favourite lyrics ever.
Understandable. I think that's actually part of why it doesn't work for me as much; I prefer the heavier sound. Not that the album is bad or anything, though.
Their new stuff is enjoyable but disposable. "See You Dead" is a pretty kickass song, though.

ha just listened to that for the first time like an hour ago. Also, Strap it On is pretty heavy but it has a less alienating sound in my opinion.

Stuff that feels like a guilty pleasure now but is still quite good, or at least some of it: Gin Blossoms (as mentioned) Soul Asylum Sponge Silverchair Ugly Kid Joe
silverchair had a damn good tune off that "godzilla" soundtrack from '98.
Silverchair is a fucking awesome band.
Agreed very underrated.
I also really like Soul Asylum. Misery is always a karaoke go to for me.

I heard The Offspring's Pretty Fly (For a White Guy) on the radio the other day and I'm now gripped by the curious urge to listen to Smash for the first time since I was in high school.

The Offspring have a lot of good stuff. My mate put their greatest hits DVD on one night not too long ago - I remember being surprised how much I enjoyed it!
