(PR) Fresh off their US tour with Heaven and Hell, Machine Head move to Europe to continue blowing fans away with material off their epic new album The Blackening, in stores now. After receiving rave reviews from fans and critics alike for their blistering sets the band is not ready to let up just yet. They are heading over the pond for a number of festival and headlining dates in Europe. They will be bringing their friends from Lamb of God, Killswitch Engage, and a number of other killer acts along with them. Robb Flynn is excited as ever to get to it. Man, leaving for Europe today, SO stoked about the run we have ahead of us, the Rock Am Ring / Rock Am Park Festivals in Germany, Download Festival in the UK, Metal Town Festival in Sweden, Hellfest in France, the prestigious Roskilde Festival in Denmark, supporting Iron Maiden in Rome at Olympic Stadium (man that just SOUNDS huge!) plus Headlining a bunch of one-offs and being able to bring out some of our favorite US and European bands as support, including our boys in Killswitch, our bruthas from other muthas Lamb Of God, the mighty Chimaira, Mastadon, our friends Caliban, the crushing Dew Scented, and As I Lay Dying...Plus the Metal Hammer(ed!!) Awards!
God Damn...!?...this is gonna be a friggin BLAST!! Looking forward to seeing all you vodka-soaked Head Cases out there in force, destroying sh*t!!! WOO HOO!!!!
