MACHINE HEAD ANNOUNCE COLOSSAL NEW 10TH ALBUM "ØF KINGDØM AND CRØWN”
By Machine Head
Head Cases! We are thrilled to reveal the details of our forthcoming 10th Album, the immense and unapologetic, "ØF KINGDØM AND CRØWN,” coming August 26th, 2022. The debut of the first video from the album, the ferocious "CHØKE ØN THE ASHES ØF YØUR HATE,” can be viewed HERE
"ØF KINGDØM AND CRØWN” is a 13 track concept album set in a decimated futuristic wasteland where the sky is stained crimson red. The crux of the story is based around 2 main characters.
Character #1 Ares: (pronounced Aries), our main, who loses the love of his life (Amethyst) and goes on a murderous rampage against the vile sect responsible for her murder.
Character #2 Eros: (pronounced Arrows) the perpetrator, who loses his mother to a drug overdose and becomes radicalized in the aftermath. Eros goes off the deep end manifesting his own killing spree.
The lyrics detail how their lives intertwine.
MACHINE HEAD founder Robb Flynn comments, “Thanks to my 2 teenage boys my family has become obsessed with this awesome Japanese anime series called “Attack On Titan.” The album’s concept was loosely inspired by the series in the sense that in the storyline, there is no “good" or "bad" guy, both characters believe they’re doing the right thing as it applies to their being, but make no mistake, both are committing acts of pure atrocity and evil. The opening track “SLAUGHTER THE MARTYR” is basically our character #1’s origin story.”
