I call bullshit, not on this album, but on just about everyone's opinion of it. I must be hearing something totally different than critics who say this is by far the worst Helmet album ever. How? It is the most polished album they have ever done, but I think it works well here. I don't buy the argument that they were selling out or wrote songs for the sake of trying to get radio play. I know that at this point Page Hamilton is the only remaining original member, and I just don't see that it really matters. I am done trying to defend my opinion. This is Helmet at their most varied and they made a damn fine album with "Size Matters".

Why the hell that retarded post? It may be not as good as the earlier albums, but it sure as hell kicks ass with songs like Last Breath, See You Dead, Throwing Punches, Crashing Foreign Cars and Enemies. This puts shitty bands like Nickelback, Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit and all those other countless bands of wussies to shame bigtime!
Helmet deserves a lot more than some silly bashing.

This album is nothing special.. Not even worth the money really. The older Helmet albums are ALOT better than this crap.

Even though Page Hamilton was the only original member after the "resurrection" of Helmet,
he still delivered a good content for this album. It might sound too polished and less raw
than the four pre-breakup albums, but it has surprisingly good riffs and drumming, with the
help of Chris Traynor, John Tempsta and Frank Bello to substitute the old line up. The album
is fun to listen, but the "mid" of the album (with tracks Drug Lord, Enemies and Unwound)
never got into me. I found them to be less interesting than the rest of the tracks.
Otherwise, the rest of the album is pretty great and contains catchy songs. Tracks worth
listening to: Smart, Crashing Foreign Cars (also appeared on Need For Speed: Underground 2),
Throwing Punches, Last Breath and Surgery.

solid album with a few bad songs. Page is still a god though. its definately better than Monochrome. But this doesent stand up with Strap It On, Meantime and Betty.
