MACHINE HEAD: More Pro-Shot Footage From U.K.'s SONISPHERE Festival Available
September 14, 2009Professionally filmed video footage of San Francisco Bay Area metallers MACHINE HEAD performing the song "Struck A Nerve" on August 2 at the Sonisphere festival at the legendary Knebworth Park, United Kingdom can be viewed below.
MACHINE HEAD — who announced on July 7 that they were pulling out of the U.K. Sonisphere because the event's promoter "placed, unbeknownst to us, LIMP BIZKIT in our third slot on the festival" — returned to the bill as the top-secret "special guests." They performed right before LIMP BIZKIT, hitting the stage at around 2:45 p.m.
According to WZOR Razor 94.7, the rock radio station serving Green Bay, Appleton, and the surrounding communities in the Fox Valley and Northeast Wisconsin, MACHINE HEAD and MEGADETH will perform at The Rave in Milwaukee on Wednesday, November 11 as part of the "Endgame Tour". SUICIDE SILENCE will also reportedly appear on the bill.
MACHINE HEAD is continuing to tour in support of its Grammy-nominated album "The Blackening", which was re-released as a "special edition" last October via Roadrunner Records.
Hailed unanimously as the best metal album of 2007 by journalists, metal radio stations and fans alike, "The Blackening" earned a Grammy nomination for the fan-favorite track "Aesthetics of Hate".
"The Blackening Special Edition" is two-disc CD/DVD set that features 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: four never-before-seen performances of MACHINE HEAD celebrating the 10th anniversary of their debut album, "Burn My Eyes", captured in Philadelphia in 2004.
