February 23, 2005

Download Festival message boarders have voted MACHINE HEAD the best band at Donington last year, for their main stage appearance on Sunday, June 6, in an online poll.

The hardcore metallers stole almost a third of the votes with SLIPKNOT taking second place and METALLICA coming third.

Other bands high up in the pecking order included KORN, ARCH ENEMY, SLAYER and LINKIN PARK.

Of MACHINE HEAD's performance, fan reviewer Tom Prince said, "Sporting some of the all time favourites like 'Davidian', 'The Blood The Sweat The Tears' and the new classic 'Imperuim', MACHINE HEAD certainly managed to silence the critics. To hear thousands in the crowd scream out the words, 'Let freedom ring with a shotgun blast' during 'Davidian' was a classic heavy metal moment. Today MACHINE HEAD were a band on top of the world, the crowd loved them and they loved the crowd back."
