I was about to say no, but you're right, midway through you can see a fretless for a second. But when they're playing all together, it's clearly a fretted one. Music video trickery, I think - it definitely sounds like a fretted bass.

Man Helmet is just peak groove metal. I understand why all those nu-metal bands tried to imitate later on, but they shouldn't have.

Album Rating: 5.0

Why the hell does it show that I gave a 5 to every frogstomp'd album? First the Limp Bizkit one and now this, lol

Maybe the site is telling you something

I mean tbf, this is not a bad choice for a 5... amazing album

I’d love a brutal death metal album with this production

naah then the lack of rhythm ability in death metal instrumentalists would be front and center, let them muddle their production as much as they want.

"naah then the lack of rhythm ability in death metal instrumentalists would be front and center, let them muddle their production as much as they want."

dude a lot of the best death metal is just groove metal but better

eh so much is buried under hi-gain settings and lo-mid heavy productions that I feel like if it most DM had the production of this, it'd come across as so loose and wonky

depends on the band no? you say "most dm", well yeah most dm isnt remarkable just like most [any genre] isnt remarkable

do you know how many 80s metal bands transitioned to pantera style in the 90s and failed miserably? too many to count!

aye fair enough
