Machine Head
Oakland's Machine Head have been a pillar of heavy metal since Robb Flynn founded the band in 1991, with their debut 'Burn My Eyes' becoming a groove metal landmark. Their 2007 masterpiece 'The Blackening' marked a dramatic creative peak that earned universal acclaim, and through lineup changes and stylistic shifts, Flynn's unrelenting vision has kept Machine Head a vital and confrontational force in metal for over three decades.
