..That involves Robb Flynn going on about how amazing it is that Machine Head have a ten minute song on their album., I'm going to kick his hbloody face in. He's not the only band to have a bloody ten minute song, the retard! For example, all from one article on blabbergay:

"By all standards, 'The Blackening' stands against everything that dictates what should be a successful album. I mean we open the album with a ten and a half minute long song ('Clenching The Fists Of Dissent')!"

"'The Blackening', overall, has four songs that are over nine to ten minutes long on there"

"It was a musical statement that we hoped would change metal and make a lasting legacy for itself. "

"A ten-minute song doesn't stand that much chance of being played on the radio or MTV. In many ways, it's limiting. But in other ways, it's also quite liberating."

So basically, Machine Head have changed metal by opening an album with a 10 minute song. Good lord.

I'm a bit drunk buy the way, you can delete this thread if you want Jauymes, it serves no purpose and no one cares.

With progressive bands like Dream Theater, Opeth and Porcupine Tree signing to Roadrunner, the idea of songs lasting longer than 5, or even 4 minutes is quite a new thing to the kids!

Why would you read an interview with Rob Flynn in the first place?

Have you guys actually heard the album?

I got the promo, and it said it was an epic thrash album, so I was excited to hear it. They are terribly wrong, it's a god awful album.

Yeah, I downloaded it just before it came out to see what all the fuss was aboot. And you're right, it's god awful! That's why I can't believe it every time they hype this album up like it's the bloody second coming of christ. I really don't understand it!

If I rightly remember though, the reason I read that article was because the main part of it was about that gig that Gama Bomb did with them, so I thought they might have a mention. They didn't, of course, so I just carried on reading 'previously up your bum...' and it was all that bullshit that I couldn't believe. Bloody Robb Flynn. If I didn't used to like MH so much as a youngster I wouldn't care as much. But what a shame.
