All I can say is this: Holy Hell. An unbelievable work you've made here guys. Thank you Machine Head. I've never been this proud to have been a diehard fan of anyone in my entire life. I feel more vindicated now than I ever could've hoped for. You're the absolute best music of the last 10 years. I hate how the rest of the U.S. can't see real talent, music and passion even when it comes from our own country. Europe definitely deserve to have this tour. Just please, eventually play some shows here. In the MidWest. I'd prefer Kansas CIty or Lawrence, but I'll go to Oklahoma or Nebraska, Missouri if I have to.

MACHINE FUCKING HEAD!!! UNTO THE LOCUST!!! Fucking amizing album!!!! very excellent dvd.
"Sweet caress
Grazes my skin
It's loveless
These hooks sink in
Behind an angel's disguise
An insect preys
Mandibles cut like a knife
A reckoning
Forming clouds
Their shadow shrouds
Louder the tattered wings they sound
Descending down
Down they come
The swarm of locusts
Skies above
Converge to choke us
Feast of souls
Consume the harvest
Young and old
Suffer unto the locust
Surrender
These veins are bled
Devoured
Nothing sacred
Strings pull the marionettes
See how they dance
Upon the winds that beget
Our pestilence
Forming clouds
Their shadow shrouds
Louder the tattered wings they sound
Descending down
Down they come
The swarm of locusts
Skies above
Converge to choke us
Feast of souls
Consume the harvest
Young and old
Suffer unto the locust
Bleeding from my eyes
This plague is sent to erase us
Bleeding from inside
These vermin can't infiltrate us
Faith appears and holds a candle
Hark the angels sing
Forming clouds
Their shadow shrouds
Louder the tattered wings they sound
Tear the veil
The lies derail
Purity ever will prevail
Trumpets sound
The shattered crown
Halos of truth now they surround
The charade comes down
Down they come
The swarm of locusts
Skies above
Converge to choke us
Feast of souls
Consume the harvest
Young and old
Suffer unto the locust"

awsome album! i thought, that nothing could top "the blackening" but i was wrong. "unto the locust" kicks your ass while listening the first time. after some repeatings you feeling this album is as good as an historic metal-album like master of puppets by metallica. "unto the locust" is a masterpeace and i'm so exciting to see MH in Oberhausen (Germany) on 11-30-11 again.
one funny thing about "unto the locust" is, that in german "locust" sounds like Lokus an old german word for toilet. ;)
