I hate how people say they stopped listening to Machine Head after the Ashes album. SERIOUSLY?! getting Phil Demmel is the best thing they ever done. saved them big time.
You said it all
if people stopped listening to them after ashes, who cares, been listening from the start, was a vio-lence fan before, thought robs guitar work was amazing
Couldn't agree more! Ashes was their comeback album in my humble opinion, wasn't really big on the Burning Red or Supercharger. They had some cool tunes, but as whole albums, they weren't near the intensity of the first 2 albums! However they been on a roll ever since Through the Ashes of Empires. The Blackening became a modern day masterpiece and Unto the Locust was a really solid effort as well. Judging by this demo I would say this upcoming album is going to kick much ass! \m/
Totally agree. I think they're only getting better, and Demmel is the fucking shit!
When I read the facebook posting that Rob posted when they lost him I was in shock. It wasn't like Pantera where everybody in the band just lost Phil and everything fell apart. They were all sad and they showed that it was a loss that they hoped it wouldnt come to. But they got strong and now its time to make music!
One of the only Metal bands I grew up with still killing it. Can't wait for the new album.
Dustin French Your mum's decent. This is amazing. Admit it Dustin.
Norbit CleaverHook
No it's just decent.
Raqubor Yeah the song doesn't have as good a shelf life and has fallen down to decent over the months. The album definitely isn't their greatest but certainly not their worst. They shouldn't have released all these tracks so far before the album come out. It ruined the vibe.
To me its as if they took all the good elements of the Blackening, Ashes and Locust and put them all into one track...can't wait to hear the rest of the album
exactly what I was thinking....it's great :)
Nice. One of my favourite bands when I was a teen, still doing their thing.
It looks like we're gonna have a great album :D
I'd like to see MH's amazing power to insert clean melodical parts out of nowhere that still fit the overall melody of the song somewhere in this song. It's just so awesome when they do that, be it in Halo, or I Am Hell, etc.
They just have a knack for it. I know it's fucking hard, but everytime they seem to nail it so fucking tightly it's awesome. (I still really like this demo, but I REALLY love the melodic approach that they got in Blackening/Locust. I hope they stay on that theme, and improve upon it.)
Are you fucking kidding me! I have been waiting for a new Machine Head CD for a very long time.
This is so incredible.
For some reason I thought newer metal wasn't interesting me. Let's go back to the roots. FUCK YEAH!
U RULE I AGEE 100%
I remember watching these guys in '97, and I think they're only getting better.
Yet another sick song guys! Cannot wait for the album release!
As usual, never a let down. Machine Head sets the standard for modern heavy metal, keeping the flame alive. Crushing.
you can really hear the evolution of Machine Head in this track, it's amazing!
Fucking A! I love the Supercharger feel this song has to it. It mixes SC, TMTC, and Blackening. So badass. I could do without everyone shouting "killers and kings" but that's my only complaint.
Supercharger, really?
machine head is on a different level now.... I bought the blackening when it came out and never heard of them and it was a metal masterpiece. I listened to their old stuff and i think it sucks almost like a different band wrote those albums... then locust came out and I bought that and it's a fucking masterpiece... every aspect of these albums is complete in it's entirety... new album is gonna be a masterpiece as well, can't wait
It is all different because they focus on making every album unique, they don't want to release the same thing twice.
I love all of their music and have listened to them since the burning red came out in 1999, which is probably one of my favourite albums by them.
You thought Burn my Eyes sucked? or The Burning Red... whoever gave you thumbs up should be burnt on the stake for blasphemy..
Daniel Nadeau
not to mention Through the Ashes of Empires
I wouldn't say that their old albums suck but the band has become a lot more polished since then. Through the Ashes is a fucking great album and they just got better from there.
So clearly you weren't there back when they LET FREEDOM RING WITH A SHOTGUN BLAST!
Somehow the first thing I though off when I read the song name "Killers & Kings" was The Witcher 2.
Demo track? Sounds a lot better then most other´s band´s studio tracks...
An unfinished demo in 2014 sounds better than a finished studio album in 2004
The did it on protools from what I understand
***** For sure. But I meant that they´ve got already a "good sounding version" of everything before they´ve hit the studio. That´s another-of-several arguments which throws Machine Head to a higher level.
Man completely agree, this is why I respect and love them so much!
Am I the only one who prefers this to the album version??
This is alright !! If this is a demo I can't wait for the final track. Looking forward to the new album, MH are awesome \m/
Machine Head never disappoints me!
Machine Fuckin' Head! \m/x\m/
YES ROB. LIKE THE GOOD OLD DAY OF HEAVY MUSIC! This is the machine head sound. Right here.
One of the GREATEST bands of all time.
The song is brutal, but I need the melodic part of Unto the Locust. Please, insert a melodic part and it will be a fucking song.
The album should contain plenty of melodic elements. :)
Lewis Griffiths machine head do what ever they want because they are legendary
Noooo, Machine Head needs less melodic parts on their songs :P This song is awesome!
Yep
One of the few bands keeping Metal alive ! Fucking brutal track !
Very impressive, especially for a demo. Not much to fix here. Reminds me of when you guys did the demo for Imperium and you more or less done with the track.
This is already a great song. I'm puzzled on how you are still going to make it better.
It'll just have better production I guess.
I still prefer the demo of Locust over the finished album version (which was a tad too polished after listening to the demo)
Dantess26 Same. Hopefully they'll use this version of the song in the final album.
Great track, fantastic for demo. And man that riff at 3.38 was brutal. Can't wait for the full album!!
The release of Ashes took Machine Head to another level while The Blackening and Locus only strengthened their efforts. This band has went right to the top of my fav's list with Shadows Fall, Unearth, KSE, and God Forbid(RIP).
Saw them perform it live for the first time yesterday at the Scion Rock Fest. Fucking amazing!
Excellent !!! Can't wait for the album !!
machine head never disappoint! can't wait for the album to drop!
Great song. Will definitely buy the Bloddstone & Diamonds album when it's released sometime in November. I also, look forward to seeing Machine Head in concert at the Sound Academy- Toronto, ON on October 14.
I love how i still can find new awesome music
At 2:05 it sounds like someone farts into the mic right before he starts singing. I couldn't stop laughing.
I soooo excited to see the MH boys. Love the new shit!!!!
sounds like a mix of Through the Ashes of Empires and a mix of The Blackening and more things Change lets face it they will never go back to the sound of burn my eyes so this will do i like it.
in my opinion Ashes and Blackening were their best era. IMO even much better than the Burn My Eyes era.
MetalUploads Austria i like both albums but to me like metallica old is better.
I agree completely.
I had to stand up from my desk chair to headbang... excellent.
My bbys have returned
Cant wait for this album to come out and subsequent tour Detroit LOVES Machine Head!!!!
This is a great year for Metal friends, love from Trinidad and Tobago \m/
For those who stopped listening after their Ashes album, did you not think that The Blackening was gold? Come on!
Hell yeah, Been a fan of MH since 1994 when my cousin showed me them. I have loved every record they have put out... and it is sound as I knew it would that this new record will be epic! Great track.
You guys are my favourite band. Keep up the good work. Machine head got me into playing and loving metal. Robb Flynn is my hero.
So excited for the new album!!
As a hardcore, and Machine Head fan from the start...I approve!!
Sounds pretty damn good for a demo. Can't imagine how good the completed song is going to sound!
This reminds me of Imperium, I fucking love you Machine Head.
Oh Machine Head how I love your music.
awesome! can't imagine how is gonna sound with all the production work finished!!
Everyone saying how they want a "new" song. It's either it's something old or they've conformed. This is a masterpiece just jam the fuck out
Saw these guys destroy Nashville, Tn with this track. Can't wait for the album to drop!!
It's good that this band isn't trying to "top" The Blackening. This song is more dynamic than Machine Head's last release. I know the record will be a great follow-up to The Locust.
The music has the rawness from the Blackening and Ashes, with the vocal style from Locust. Can't wait for this album :D
this is great, i wait for a final product
KEEP CALM They always come back !
it doesn't sounds original if you listening to the old albums, but it's always great to hear Machine Head
Guys, I'll buy anything you release but PLEASE make it sound like The Blackening!
***** obviously you are unable to read with understanding. I didn't write their album should be the blackening 2. I meant the sound itself, the production, not the contents. But I guess you're too much of a fucktard to understand it.
zniesmaczony "Sound like the blackening" is a bit vague. That could mean in terms of production like you said, or, like some "close minded fools" the same riffs basically.
vacuity71 you think that's enough reason to call someone a fucktard?
I didn't say that
Well, I'll let you two hash this one out.
Vocals sound really good
Everybody loves Machine Head
It's a demo as it was most likely recorded 'live' and not tracked individually, and as they are recording the new album on analogue tape the eventual production sound may be different. As a song though, it's killer.
Wasn't too amazed by it the first time I listened to it, but god damn it's growing on me. Too stoked for the new record!
Finally a great song! I missed enjoying a MH headbanging song!
2.40 tht savage little drum solo gos into animal guitar solo...i think its deadly track
MH is still lethal. Outstanding demo track!
Yes! This sounds excellent. And I hear Jared in there! God I missed that guys voice.
Snapped my neck banging to this "Demo"
The whole album is going to fucking break it !!!!!
The lyrics are fucking awesome, like satanism, ancient evils, tarot, mind, Predict the future, I think the new album will talk about this sort of thing
bir Machine Head klasiği \m/
this looks like it is gonna be one hell of an album
Love that little drum solo
2:34 Holy drums.
that was probably pretty simple for ol' McClain even, he's baaadaaaassss! Seen Machinehead twice and I couldn't help but watch Dave McClain slam the songs out, he's truely entertaining to watch and hear!
This has a really Supercharger feel to me, digging it.
Glad you are a fan, but I'm not hearing Supercharger in this...
Amm, for me this sounds much more closer to The Blackening, specifically Beautiful Mourning.
sextothebeat
My thoughts exactly.
I'm extremely glad I didn't get flamed for my opinion, is the internet finally growing up? :p
BaconJets
Don't talk that fast Hahahahahaha. It has only passed one day since you said it. Wait like a month and you'll sure get a moron calling you a poseur or something.
The drumming....... 😍
Hopefully the WHOLE Album/CD is like this song....Ashes and Blackening will always be the 2 BEST METAL CD'S EVER MADE BY ANY BAND PERIOD....Nothing else even comes close!!!!..MACHINE FUCKING HEAD RULES!!!!.....
This sounds FUCKING AWESOME ! can't wait for the CD to hit stores !
Just a real and amazing band! Bless the machine!!!!!
if anything, this song is more poppy and up beat than anything they ever released with how much robb sings during the verse and chorus. but the lyrics are pretty fucking cool. so i like this song
This is awesome for a demo track!!!!....Can't wait to hear it mastered!!..
Five people are out of their goddamned minds.
going to be good!
Love it! I feel like the solo needs just another couple of bars to it and obviously tidying up in general but this is awesome! Keep it up guys!!
This sounds new and fresh without losing the heavy sound...really relived cause usually after good album (or few) most bands make a crash landing... =)
Sounds great!very good track,i`ll be waiting for the full album
Yeah!!! Really good, I can't wait the album!
Sounds like Through the Ashes of Empire and The Blackening had a baby.
I'm already pumped for the new album after hearing this.
That drum fill at 2:34!!! Sweet track
Sounding unreal! Can't wait to pre-order the album :)
450hz Drop B?
This needs to be tabbed out !
Agree completely!
I'm so fucking excited for this record. If this song is any indication of what's on the album, it could be a stone cold classic!!
The vinyls are really really awesome.
Best band on the planet. Hands down.
YOU MADE MY DAY THANK YOU SO SO FUCKINH MUCH MACHINEFUCKINGHEAD FOREVER THE CREATIVITY AND HEART BEATS FOR THE LOVE OF MUSIC
Good stuff, not quite amazing. A bit more of the same, but that same old shit still kicks the asses of 99% of today's "competition". This is a demo, so I can't wait for the official track. Machine Head almost always brings the goods :)
idk why but i cant stop listening this song :D
this is the best iv heard u guys in a long time pease please keep this up
I think the question we need to ask is how are they going to turn this good 4:27 demo into a 7 minute monster! Machine F**kin Head!
Sounds sick. I'll keep an eye out for this, for sure.
Great stuff coming!!!
Both my ears just came at the same time, it was a romantic eargasm... Machine Fucking Head!!!
I've never been a fan of Machine Head really mostly due to the fact that I couldn't get into Robb's voice. I got over that and they fucking rule now!
Machine Head is one of the most consistent bands in metal. I am into this track already and it's my first listen! Fuck I can't wait for this album! MACHINE FUCKIN HEAD!!! ......\m/ \m/
Saw them yesterday live Killers&Kings fucking ruled \m/
