TROUBLE - MANIC FRUSTRATION (1991)

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
Another lost classic from the vaults. It actually took me a little while to appreciate this album. I blame that on the numerous SABBATH comparisons and the constant miscategorization of TROUBLE as a doom band. Truth be told, while I consider TROUBLE right at home here at G.O.M.E., Manic Frustration is probably the most "accessible" album I've posted thus far. If you're not familiar, though, don't let that scare you. "Mr. White" alone is worth the download, and the album as a whole is great. TROUBLE wasn't as heavy as ELECTRIC WIZARD or as haunting as SAINT VITUS, but if you're a fan of heavy rock with steady grooves, lots of melody, and a psychedelic angle, I can't recommend Manic Frustration highly enough.
