Machine Head

Nay. The Blackening is worthless and songs I've heard from previous albums were mostly nu metal.
 
Yep

This guy I met on this band camp showed me some of their music and I was hooked.

The Blackening is the best but I haven't really listened to their other stuff yet
 
No, because there is a 99% probability that that album he has is a pirated copy because if it was one he bought he would likely have already listened to it by now ;) Hence the need of the Pirate emoticon.

Indeed. A pirate emoticon would be quite sweet.

Unless he buys in bulk, then it would be understandable. In which would account for the 1% probably.

I don't know anyone who buys in bulk, but the UM store is posting auctions for bulk cds and some of them look pretty sweet. Anybody else checked that out?

The only times I bought in bulk was a going out a of business sale at a local place, and off a friend who sold a lot of his stuff.
 
I remember seeing a video of machine head covering KoRn and it was the funniest shit ever(probably on Youtube).
 
i have seen machine head in concert with lamb of god and am goin to see them again with metallica. i have all their cd's except for the more things change. i can't stop listening to the blackening. all the songs are great. burn my eyes is a close second, then i would have to put throught the ashes of the empire third. suprecharger isn't that amazing though. that's my opinion on the subject

Machine Head Announce ‘The Blackening’ Special Edition Details

mh

Bay Area metal titans, Machine Head, are proud to announce the release of the special edition version of ‘The Blackening’, their Grammy-nominated masterwork. Hailed unanimously as the best metal album of 2007 by journalists, metal radio stations and fans alike, it earned a Grammy nomination for the fan-favorite track, “Aesthetics of Hate” and all the while Machine Head continue to earn “the hardest working band” title with over 19 months on the road in support of ‘The Blackening’ (with 5 U.S. tours alone) and no signs of stopping soon.

‘The Blackening’ Special Edition is two disc CD/DVD set that will feature an assortment of extras, including rare bonus tracks such as covers of Iron Maiden’s “Hallowed Be Thy Name,” over an hour of live performance footage from With Full Force, Download and Rock in Rio festivals, three uncensored music videos for “Aesthetics of Hate,” “Now I Lay Thee Down” and “Halo,” a “making of” featurette on each video, “The Making of The Blackening” and expanded artwork. There’s also what many hardcore fans have been rabidly waiting for: 4 never-before-seen performances of Machine Head celebrating the 10th anniversary of their debut album, ‘Burn My Eyes’, captured in Philadelphia in 2004. This special edition is a must have for any fan of this Bay Area band that is steadily carving out “legendary status” for itself within the metal scene.

Machine Head spent the summer headlining the second stage of the first annual Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival and the band will cap off two extremely successful years as direct support on Metallica’s U.S. headline tour in December 2008 and January 2009. Metallica frontman James Hetfield was quoted in Revolver as saying, “‘The Blackening’ [is] unbelievable. Unbelievable sound and power. It sounds like a band on fire. They have really turned it on again for me.”

‘The Blackening’ Special Edition is due in stores October 28, 2008.
