| Helmet Ranked
Recently made a list about seeing Helmet live (along with Filter) and figured rI'd rank Helmet by ralbum. | | 1 |  | Helmet Aftertaste
Most would say 1994's 'Betty' holds this spot, but I think Aftertaste surpasses Betty
marginally. The melody and the hooks are what makes this album special. Helmet
at their finest. (Like I Care, It's Easy to Get Bored, Exactly What You Wanted,
Driving Nowhere, Broadcast Emotion, (High) Visibility) | | 2 |  | Helmet Betty
Iconic record. Even though I would be born a year after its release, meaning I
wasn't alive during that time period, I'm pretty sure this was huge. Not much to say
here. Fucking great album. (Wilma's Rainbow, Biscuits For Smut, Milquetoast, Tic,
Clean, The Silver Hawaiian) | | 3 |  | Helmet Meantime
IN THE MEANTIME!! Good shit. Mass amounts of riffage, very barebones, straight-
forward style. (In the Meantime, Unsung, Ironhead, FBLA II) | | 4 |  | Helmet Strap It On
Their first. Has some kickass tunes that hold up with Helmet's other material.
(Sinatra, Bad Mood, FBLA, Blacktop) | | 5 |  | Helmet Born Annoying
Although I never dug this as much as the above, it gets its spot here. 'Cause it's
old. And it does kick ass. (Taken, Shirley MacLaine, Born Annoying) | | 6 |  | Helmet Size Matters
Getting into their newer stuff. Not a bad album. In fact, it kicks ass. (Crashing
Foreign Cars, Throwing Punches, Surgery) | | 7 |  | Helmet Seeing Eye Dog
Their newest album. A lot of melody, a bit more than most Helmet fans can
stomach. Still a great album with some good tunes. (Seeing Eye Dog, Welcome to
Algiers, So Long) | | 8 |  | Helmet Monochrome
I don't own this album, but I have listened to it. Page Hamilton tries a new vocal
style and the end result isn't great. Just my opinion. The only redeemable track for
me is (Monochrome) | |

07.31.14 | When it comes to nostalgia these are right up there for me but I never truly dug. I gave Betty a listen recently for the first time in about 17yrs and it was better than I remembered. The band name has always been shite though. | ButteryBiscuitBass
