MACHINE HEAD: "Eight years ago, we got turned down by 35 labels, and now every label on the planet wants to sign us."
Recently, PitCam.TV sat down with Robb Flynn from MACHINE HEAD! The interview took place at this year's edition of the With Full Force festival, which was held June 29 - July 1 at Flugplatz Roitzschjora in Löbnitz, Germany (near Leipzig). Here are a few excerpts of the interview.
Roadrunner Records' "restructuring" under parent label Warner Music Group, which resulted in roughly 36 staff members worldwide being let go and several regional offices being closed.
"It's a shame, man. It's a fucking shame. Considering that these are, like, the premier people in their field… I mean, when it comes to Metal, there was no one better. They were profitable, which almost no label in this day and age can say. The thing that was most bizarre was that Warner had all of their rock and metal bands going through Roadrunner [in Europe] 'cause [Warner] didn't know what to do. So it's kind of like, 'Why would you [close the Roadrunner offices in those territories]?' But they did it."
He continued, "We're still trying to see how it is; we're trying to get a feel for what's going on. We're in between labels right now — the last record was the [final one under our most recent contract with] Roadrunner, so we're actually in a pretty unique position, because we've got a lot of different choices that we can go with right now, and the world is, basically, our oyster. It's a rad position to be in. Eight years ago, we got turned down by 35 labels, and now every label on the planet wants to sign us. [laughs] So it's pretty awesome. So we're gonna play it out. Roadrunner's still got a lot of people that we know and love there — especially in America, they've got a real strong… the core people that are there are huge MACHINE HEAD supporters. We're gonna check it out and we may very well end up on Roadrunner. We just need to make sure that it's the right thing and that they get what we're doing, because we're not a pop band, we're not some mainstream artist. I mean, we're the biggest underground Metal band, I guess, there is."

MACHINE HEAD: Fan Draws A Killer Portrait Of Robb Flynn! #MetalArt
Our good friends from ROADRUNNER RECORDS posted today a kickass video from artist Sean Kealy (kealytronart on YouTube). The very talented artist has put up a clip of him drawing Machine Head's badass singer/guitarist Robb Flynn. The video compresses approximately four hours of drawing time into six minutes, and Kealy says a friend of his was running sound at Machine Head's Dublin concert, and showed the drawing to Robb, who signed it for him!

Machine Head's Phil Demmel Discusses NEW DVD & Announces Engagement!
"We toured on 'The Blackening' for three years, [played] almost four hundred shows, [and] we have footage from everything," commented Demmel. "So much happened on that tour — our drummer's mom died, my dad died… So much happened to us. We almost broke up, we went to therapy… All this different shit happened. So we're trying to put all of this together. It's just too much [to include in a single DVD package]. So we wanna whittle it down and create a cool story."
In other news, Phil Demmel recently announced that he is engaged to Bleeding Through's keyboardist Marta Peterson. Demmel and Peterson started dating when their bands toured together in Australia and Japan in early 2010. Peterson was twice named "Hottest Chick" in Metal by Revolver magazine.
"I met the girl of my dreams in Australia the last time we were down there. One of the greatest things that has ever happened to me was on that run. I have very special memories of Australia and knowing that I was in love for the first time when I was in Brisbane." - Phil Demmel
Phil has a five-year-old son, Jadon Philip Demmel, with "rock model" Jamie Jagger.

Twenty Albums That Made 2011 Heavy, Exciting & Dangerous!
One of the most arduous tasks that we have to put up with year after year, is selecting our "best of" lists. When the calendar hits the month of December, we usually have a good idea of which albums should be on our "best of" lists. However, instead of applying the typical method that most outlets out there use, which is usually based on their first impressions. We went back and listened to over 50 albums that were released in 2011, and reanalyzed our tentative list very carefully. This took a lot of our time, but we wanted to compile what we believe are twenty albums that made 2011 heavy, exciting, and very dangerous. Here you go!
20) Lies Beneath - "Death Of The American Dream"
19) Chimaira - "The Age Of Hell"
18) Kittie - "I've Failed You"
17) Charred Walls Of The Damned - "Cold Winds On Timeless Days"
16) Generation Kill - "Red, White and Blood
15) Unearth - "Darkness In The Light"
14) Ikillya - "Recon"
13) No Remission - "Through Blackened Skies"
12) The Black Dahilia Murder - "Ritual"
11) DevilDriver - "Beast"
10) Revocation - "Chaos Of Forms"
9) Jasta - "Jasta"
8) Crowbar - "Sever The Wicked Hand"
7) A Pale Horse Named Death - "And Hell Will Follow With Me"
6) Cavalera Conspiracy - "Blunt Force Trauma"
5) Arch Enemy - "Khaos Legions"
4) Vildhjarta - "masstaden"
3) Amon Amarth - "Surtur Rising"
2) Machine Head - "Unto The Locust"
1) Anthrax - "Worship Music"

After the listening party concluded, the debauchery continued at the legendary Heavy Metal Mecca Duff's Brooklyn where Robb Flynn picked up a guitar, jumped in front of a microphone, gripped on a drink, and started jamming out to Machine Head songs, as well as various covers.
