MACHINE HEAD Announces New Album Catharsis, 2018 North American Tour Dates

Well that was quick.

Well that was quick.

Machine Head recently wrapped up recording with Zach Ohren (Fallujah, All Shall Perish) at Sharkbite Studios in Oakland, CA, and now the band is ready to announce the fruits of its labors! The new Machine Head album Catharsis will be out sometime in January 2018, and the band has also announced a North American tour in support o the effort.

The tour will be an "Evening With" style tour with no openers.

"It's been far too long since we've demolished venues in America, we have had an awesome and productive break writing our new album "Catharsis", but now it's time for Machine Head to go melt some faces!! The reaction to our last "Evening With" tours in America were nothing short of incredible, so once again these dates will be "Evening With" and will see us performing 2 1/2 to 3 hours every night with no opening bands.

We LOVED performing as an "Evening With" for you Head Cases, and you guys loved it as well, the freedom to do whatever the fuck we wanted for as long as we wanted every night was liberating. It's not what everyone else is doing, and frankly, there are not a lot of bands who could even pull it off, but Machine Head CAN pull it off, and we are excited as fuck to do it again. We are carving our own path here, playing by our own rules, and as an artist, it's the best feeling in the world!

No festivals period, no 45 minute slots, no supporting some stupid DJ, no parking lots in a rain storm, The Head will only be "Headlining", so come on down and rage!!"
