Bloodstone & Diamonds


Following another appearance on the Rockstar Mayhem Tour in the US, and having inked a new deal with Nuclear Blast Entertainment, Machine Head set about the writing for their 8th studio album 'Bloodstone & Diamonds'. "I cannot even begin to tell you how proud we are of this album," enthuses mainman Robb Flynn. "It's a milestone for us." Commenting on the title, Flynn explains ,"Bloodstone and diamonds represent two of the hardest materials on earth and it's also a lyric from the opening track of the album "Now We Die". In many cultures the bloodstone has been used as an amulet to protect against evil, and is the symbol of justice. Diamonds are the hardest natural material on earth (which is how we feel about our music), and it also represents the diamond logo I drew 22 years ago that has become the symbol for the band.Produced again by Flynn and Juan Urteaga, and masterfully mixed by Colin Richardson, the album is arguably the strongest set of songs on any MH release to date. Bristling with renewed aggression, energy and adventure from the opening call-to-arms of 'How We Die', via the epic 'Sail Into The Black' and the menacing 'Beneath The Silt', Machine Head are back!
