Dave McClain Talks About "The Eight Plague Tour" & The Evolution Of MACHINE HEAD!


This past Friday (February 3), the might MACHINE HEAD took over the Best Buy Theater in New York City. Joining the Bay Area Metallers were Suicide Silence and Darkest Hour. Around 9:30, the mighty MACHINE HEAD returned to New York City after many years of not stepping on stage in the city that never stops rocking! Talk about a comeback show. This time around MACHINE HEAD brought with them an impressive aural and visual show that stimulated the senses of 2,000+ headbangers. Hearing their NEW songs live, proved to our ears that once again MACHINE HEAD has reinvented their musical craft with 'Unto The Locust'.

As oppose to other bands that wont perform a significant set time after having numerous albums under their belt, MACHINE HEAD pulled out their musical arsenal and included songs from every single one of their releases. An emotional Robb Flynn thanked New York City for always receiving his band with arms wide open, plenty of adrenaline, and tons of headbanging! Click here to check out our show review and a bunch of badass pictures!


Prior to the destruction that ensues when MACHINE HEAD steps on stage, we had the chance to chat with Dave McClain (MACHINE HEAD's drummer). During the conversation we discussed "The Eight Plague Tour", the bands musical evolution, and MACHINE HEAD's future plans. Check it out and spread the word!
