Mass Hysteria is a french metal band with great riffs a good frontman and some technoid loops to make it groove. Those guys rocks hard. Check it out! LE groupe de metal francais un super album avec des gros riffs bien saignants et tout ce quu'il faut pour faire bouger la tête et le reste.

I absolutely love this band! I stumbled across them because of another band Masnada from FR who is awesome also. These guys just Rip it up!! I downloaded all of their albums and the only one I wouldn't waste my time with is De Cercle en Cercle. It's not that heavy and sounds like an crappier version of the most recent Deftones stuff. If you like that kind of thing it's great but if you like heavier stuff this CD is great!

5.0 out of 5 stars without a doubt, best french metal band, October 1, 2006

Not only that, this band put out 2 first albums that have a place among the classics of slayer pantera and co. No technical guitar solos, but some good, simple and very heavy riffs (Rammstein style), with tribal drumming and sampling, and a very good singer. If you do not know this band and are looking for something to listen to this is definitively worth it. However do not bother with their more recent albums which although can still be moderetely heavy, the tribal rythms and sampling has left place to new metal ,while aggressive rapping became singing and moaning , and the riffs suck.

But the first 2 albums (of which this is the second) are really really good. Best songs in my opinion are Furia, Donnez vous la peine, Knowledge is power, Contradiction, but a few more a nearly as good.
