This is definitely one of my favorite albums from the last 5 years. If you like heavy guitars, pounding drums, solid, thick bass, and the screamed, shouty style vocals, you are good to go. This is one of the heaviest albums ever made. Most of the songs are mid-paced groove. All of the musicians here are top notch. The drummer has played with Yngwie Malmsteen. The guitarist is now in Halford. This album is fantastic. The songs are heavy groove oriented pounders. I absolutely love this kind of music. Every song is a keeper. An awesome album with hopefully a follow-up soon.

It is an awesome CD. Very hard and heavy music. I love cranking up the volume on this CD.

....anyway,this stuff's cool.Just thought I'd let some of you know.At first,I didn't wanna hear it-I mean,damn,the name of the band is diesel machine! ...But they persuaded me.The songs here are just awesome,and probably fans of the new trash metal(i.e. Pissing Razors,Skinlab)will most likely love this album.The vocals are just growls,and it tends to get annoying at times-but hey,who can stand another John Davis these days?The guitar's really heavy,as a heavy thing,and fans of the meshuggah-like riff (of course,not that complex...but who could do that,huh?)will definitely like this.So,whadda hell ya waiting for?Get this!

Oh boy, what a headache. Diesel Machine's only claim to fame was that it featured Pat Lachman, who went on to much better things. This album was a total failure as it was typical in its aural assualt. Bad Cookie Monster vocals, redundant and predictable guitar "riffs" and a general lack of anything listenable. The band had two fans - one was an out of work California DJ and the other some spaz who was completely obsessed with the band. Luckily, Diesel Machine broke up way past when they should have. Approximately 10 people bought this album.
