MACHINE HEAD unleashed their second live effort, Machine F**king Head Live, this year on November 13th via Roadrunner Records. What the listener is treated to is a nearly two-hour, double live album of brutal perfection that covers the band’s eighteen year career in heavy metal. Hellalive was the group’s first live CD released in 2003— but nearly a decade has passed since then, and the band has certainly grown in importance. They are undoubtedly well known for delivering one of the most epic live shows in all of heavy music.
Machine Fucking Head Live was recorded at different tour stops last year. It includes songs from throughout the band’s catalog, including my personal favorites: “Imperium,” “The Blood, The Sweat, The Tears”, “Aesthetics of Hate,” and “Locust”.
Hardcore fans of the band will not be let down for the intensity is palpable from track one all the way until song fifteen. Bottom line you get Robb, Phil, Adam and Dave doing what they do best, ripping it up for the masses as only they can. Machine F**king Head Live is one of 2012’s very best.
