I feel the need to thank you, Robb Flynn. At the show in Copenhagen (Saturday, november the 29th) you asked who were at a Machine Head concert for the first time. I raised “the horns”, and you looked at me, pointed at me and said: “You’ve got a Pass!” I can’t describe how much that means to me! My sister and I were at Vega when the doors opened, and we got a spot in front of the stage. When Machine Head started playing, I was in a 2 hour long “fight” with some guys, who kept pushing me, hitting me in the back, my head and my arm, trying to take my spot. I have quite a few bruises ;) What I want to tell you is that I really appreciate your comment! You saw me struggling to keep in front of the stage, standing my ground, and singing along, horns in the air! Your comment gave me renewed energy, and you played (one of) my favorits “Halo” \m/ \m/ Thank you! I hope to experience a Machine Head concert again soon, please think about visiting Copenhell in 2015!!! ;) Hugs and “horns” from the woman in the black dress, with the long black hair.
ive seen these guys in portland. rob threw a beer to me. and i was 16. one of the best shows ive seen..the guitars, and vocals, drumming, everything was fuckin spot on.
This is the song years ago that made me like machine head. I've been a fan for years and yet all my friends still listen to bands that will never make music again like they did, for one reason or another. I wish I knew people that loved the music I do and had the ability to perform so I could, in my opinion, better myself and one day be a part, even if I went no where with it, of the metal culture in my own way. I wish I was more then just a fan.
I guessing that the edited version isn't as appealing as the 9 minute one. I bet that the now deleted videos featuring that one had more views. Plus, TH-cam wasn't as popular during the heyday of the album
Justin Wiley That's because Heavy Metal has always been mostly an underground deal and that it's not all of the sub-genres of it is exactly radio-friendly.
If Kanye was on this album, these newcomers would have blown up, ok! My wife got me tickets for a meet and greet with them as a birthday gift, and I was so confused like, “sure I own every single album, limited edition shirts, and a few hats but dat Kanye doh!”...they should just change their name to Kanye Head, like furreal.
Pero que Rolon mi cancion favorita de todas y The Blackening el mejor album de Machine Head espero el siguiente sea tan bueno como los es The Blackening
The song is a body the solo is the heart,cutting the heart out is like killing the song.This is the purpose for the song to be even more awesome than it already is.
Great song, shame about this neutered version having the most views on TH-cam though :/ For those who don't know: The studio version of this song is 9 minutes of heavy metal fucking glory, and if you haven't listened to it then DO SO.
I've been a fan of Machine Head for a few years now, but where I live it's quite hard to get good metal CDs and the download speed means that I would probably pay the double the amount a CD would cost in electricity which means that I haven't been able to get a hold of 'The Blackening' for quite a while. I finally got it for Christmas and upon hearing it for the first time, I actually shed a tear over what I'd missed in my life. Thank you for this masterpiece Machine Head. You are amazing. \m/
Watching this video again in early 2015, I can't help but thinking: what if this video portrayed a Muslim cleric instead of a Catholic one? Can you imagine the scandal?? Accusations of racism and Islamophobia would fly from all sides. I'm fed up with this double standard :/ We should be able to criticize religion as much as we want without paying attention to butthurt people.
Wow. Absolutely agree with you. The last thing I'd want is one of my favourite bands bombed by Extremists. xD not a joke yeh. But yes, everything should take criticism, and reacting like arses to it or censoring it is idiocy.
Bands normally shorten really long songs on music videos man. Maybe they couldn't afford to make it full length. Besides, they're musicians, not film actors, so why does it matter man
this was the first machine head song I ever heard it was on a metal hammer compilation disc or something like that and ive loved them since. saw them at the mayhem festival two years ago they were amazing. bang your head......
BEST SONG EVER!!!!!!!! I AM ONLY 14 YEARS OLD AND I LOVE YOU, YOU ARE THE BEST, I CRY WHEN I HEAR ONE OF YOUR SONG (SORRY IF I SPELLD SOME WORDS WRONG) COME TO CROATIA IN THE CITY VARAŽDIN PLEASE
@Halofonte right near a metrolink station called deansgate castlefield literally right next to it, u can get to any tram station from any manchester train station

Now Robb only has to read every TH-cam-comment below every MH-video on the internet and he will get this message.
wow i also saw machine head live in belgium this year
They were the future of metal 17 years ago.
And they still are.
Both great how they keep great, and sad how most of new bands can't make it this good.
this is my favorite song of all
the riff is fantastic, the lyrics are so true, and well... the voice is so Flynn !
I never thought a metal hymn would be written again. Those guys proved me wrong.
This song is just amazing, lyrical and instrumental genius in practically every way. Just beautiful, although I miss the long solo.
7 years later and it is still as brutal as ever! Get some!!
The chorus Riff is one of the best I ever heard...sheeesh
+MezmeriZe I love your avatar. SOAD RULES!
Both of your profile pictures are great. SOAD and Acid Bath ftw :^)
Then you need some education
top 5 fav Machine Head songs!
the most heavy,brutal, dirty, amazing riff in metal ever!!!!! this song can be used to start a revolution across the world!!!
My personal favorite song from these guys. This whole albums kicks ass.
que buenos recuerdos me trae esta banda, buenos momentos y buena musica
i'm a christian, and this is one of my favorite songs.
One of the best songs every, hard tot think of anything drastically better than this masterpiece
Its just.. words cant describe what i just listened to.
This is the best band ive ever heard
10000/10 would attend their concert again!!! \m/
Love you, Machine Head!!!
Yeaaaap still on of my top 5 Alltime favorites
machine head should get more fan base than those boy bands of today
the blackening is still one of the best albums i have ever heard. Was long ago now, need more machine head!
So I guess this is my official introduction to Machine Head. I'll have fun.
Oh you will.
+MrBibbityBop How was it?
It's not even the full (album) version of Halo
this song saved my life. in doing so it also showed me true musicianship and music
Its been a year since my friend Matt died. this was his favourite song, R.I.P bro
ive seen these guys in portland. rob threw a beer to me. and i was 16. one of the best shows ive seen..the guitars, and vocals, drumming, everything was fuckin spot on.
Every time I see this video I'm reminded of Dantes Inferno were the supposed bishop absolves them of their sins. Fucking Epic video!!!!
This is the song years ago that made me like machine head. I've been a fan for years and yet all my friends still listen to bands that will never make music again like they did, for one reason or another.

Machine Head Is My New Favourite Band
The world needs more Machine Head
Me encanta todo lo de Machine head 🖤
The Arch Bishop & Father Priest at my Shcool were super cool. I Grateful for their Grace & Service. 🙏🏻🎄✨🌌
Song on the album is amazing, but this edit and this video have made a mockery of it.
The Pope in this video is one of the band member's Dad.
Lisa Esquivel dose that make em the son of Satan ?? lol
Thank you Machine Head for this song!
I like the full album version better!
the album version is the best metal music oat
Saw these guys with ATR, Black Dahlia, and DETHKLOK!! They killed it! I loved it
A real life fictional band 🤘🏽
How the hell does this just have a million views? Did it not appease the "greatest living rockstar" Mr. Kayne West?
No greatest living rockstar MUST BE Justin Bieber. Never heard such beautiful music before. :-)

This one is the heaviest Machine head song ever. This song was like a drug of mine back in early days
My religion is Machine Head !!!!
very nice to know u like this band they are like one of the best just hear that harmonic technique hitting it on that fifth frett
Pero que Rolon mi cancion favorita de todas y The Blackening el mejor album de Machine Head
espero el siguiente sea tan bueno como los es The Blackening
Nada mas que decir que Machine Head mi banda favorita
estoy de acuerdo con vos Machine Head tambien es mi banda favorita y creo q los mejores albunes son The Blackening y Bloodstone and Diamonds
Jeremias Riccio para mi los 2 mejores son The Blackening y Unto The Locust
The Metallian Si bro, Machine Fucking Head \m/
The song is a body the solo is the heart,cutting the heart out is like killing the song.This is the purpose for the song to be even more awesome than it already is.
I don't care about lyrics, I just like good music
+Lethaltoke I was just saying I like the progression of this song, it wouldn't matter if it had half the lyrics
I dont care about you
slave got em
Same.
Well lyrics kick ass too... so double bonus
Greatest song ever written.
this is a master piece
Too good ....
Everytime I listen to this song it blows my mind ! But I like the whole song better... That intro is just amazing !
Great squealie at 5.00. Wish Zakk Wylde could learn to use them as sparingly, and therefore as effectively.
Probably the most catchy chorus ever
Believing in God and believing in church are two different things, most of the priests are materialistic (not all of them).
Not really, but whatever. Also, "Christians" like the Westboro Baptist Church give God a bad name. They're hypocrites.
+Rozii1996 my input exactly, I always believed the devil lived in the church
At the same time the pope is rolling in a bullet proof car with gold chains smugling cocaine, haha xD Like you have gotta see something wrong there :P
This is one of the most real things I've ever read in my life
Epic Powerful Voices & Masterpiece Songs Forever Guyz. 🙂❤️💯🔥🤘.
Porque no pusieron la parte del solo? Es lo mejor
Mix of heavy and light vocals, I like it :)
Great song, shame about this neutered version having the most views on TH-cam though :/
For those who don't know: The studio version of this song is 9 minutes of heavy metal fucking glory, and if you haven't listened to it then DO SO.
i thought "halo" was a legend...but "locust" is totally being the song of the carrier!! GOOOOOO MACHINE HEEEAD!
The Sims 2, anyone?
I don't know wtf ts means but ok buddy 👍
Great tune, Great show ! Saw them at Knotfest, epic!
When Adam Deuce was still part of once pretty cool band
They still are cool, Robb Flynn is Machine Head
Fuck no more
saw 'em a year ago. since then, this song gives me chills.
How in the fack could they leave the whole mid section out! Blasphemy! Blasphemy I say
I was wondering where the epic solo went. I thought my mind had wandered, and I just missed it.
I've been a fan of Machine Head for a few years now, but where I live it's quite hard to get good metal CDs and the download speed means that I would probably pay the double the amount a CD would cost in electricity which means that I haven't been able to get a hold of 'The Blackening' for quite a while.

I literally never sign-in just to comment something. Never.
This time I did. And you definitely deserve more upvotes!
Your point is outstanding.
Nebelwinde Thanks for taking the time to sign in and leave this comment ^_^
You're welcome. And be assured. We're not the only ones who share this opinion. Unfortunately only few stand up for it.
Wow. Absolutely agree with you. The last thing I'd want is one of my favourite bands bombed by Extremists. xD not a joke yeh. But yes, everything should take criticism, and reacting like arses to it or censoring it is idiocy.
***** Oh yes such a racist title!! Lol xD
This clip is so awesome ... And the song has a deep meaning..\m/

Bands normally shorten really long songs on music videos man. Maybe they couldn't afford to make it full length. Besides, they're musicians, not film actors, so why does it matter man
