Description
More than a decade into their tenure of metal devastation, Machine Head turn to an everything-but-the-kitchen-sink approach on their seventh full-length, THE BLACKENING. A riveting aural cataclysm from start to finish, THE BLACKENING finds these West Coast monsters touching upon almost all recent genres of heavy metal--from stoner to thrash to industrial to death--usually all in the course of a single song and, frankly, better than anyone else on the planet. Robb Flynn and Phil Demmel lead the attack, and hold a history-of-metal-guitar clinic via their hellacious twin riffage.
