This has everything a quintissential metal music video has: -a filter -edited old footage -okay acting, badass costumes -some cgi thrown here and there -random band member closeups -either a cyclical plot or just a collection of scenes that don't make sense -and, of course, the most BADASS TUNE YOU'VE HEARD IN YOUR LIFE!!!
These guys actually came to my house once - my step dad at the time was their sound tech for their US tour a few years back; my mum made them Shepard's Pie.
I just started listening to Machine Head about half an hour ago and I have to say I love the philosophy of three and a half bars of sludgy riffage followed up by the sudden "BEEP!" of a tapped note.
I made a spotify playlist recently of just pure Metal. The rule was that I couldn't have more than 10 songs from a single band. I ended up putting on Imperium, Davidian and the entirety of the 8 songs on The Blackening. The album's been one of the best over the last decade.
Damn, it 's been a while since I heard this album. I started getting into Metal at the age of probably 8 because of my older brother. Always thankful for that. Anyhow, at 14 I got more into Hardcore and Punkrock. Then at 16 or 17 I really opened up and discovered so much beauty in so many different Genres. But somehow I stopped listening to Metal. When this record came out, think I was about 25, it was one of those records that brought me back and let me appreciate Metal Music all over again. Thanks Brother and thank you Machine Head. 🙏❤
I see them live last week and i'm still with adrenaline in my veins. Hear this music live made me alive again! Thank you Machine Head for incredible show here in Brazil!!! Vai caralho!!!
Even though I like how heavy this song is I don't blame the ones who dislike this video considering the fact the good parts that make up this song such as the breakdown, Phil's solo & Robb & Phil's duet had been removed. Halo is not the same without those components.
The main reason of this legendary song's views are 1,5 millions is not 150 millions is, that they cut off the FUCKING LEGENDARY SOLO, it was the heart of this song...
I am falling in love with Machine Head all over again! Your new favourite band needn't be a new band! (Sorry Slayer, you know I'll always love you ,I'll be back)!😈
"And I won't pray for you." "Good luck with that." I can testify that, since the 1970's ('seventies) in my American locale, the locals that walk around the town have been saying, "Don't," and the attitude of proselytization is "expressive," in various fashions, of that they' will mentally concentrate on whomever they want. Scores years later, it turns out they will also have found where you live and compete for who gets the notch for the win.
I just played the sims 2 complete collection, just saw the songs in the game and was tremendously surprised that this one was in the game, i didn't knew this song, so thanks sims 2
I'm sorry I missed Halo at MGH tour in Sydney (I had to leave early) - the PA blew, clearly the venue couldn't handle the awesomeness that is Machine Head!
I'm not there but i wish i was. My friend Alex told me that it was a masterpiece. Even today after all this this years he still get crazy over this motherfucking song. You are blessed to live this alive.
Top MH in 2024: 1. Halo 2. Imperium 3. Aesthetics of Hate 4. Now we Die 5. Vim 6. Sentinel (cover) 7. The Blood, The Sweat, The Tears 8. The Burning Red 9. All Falls Down 10. Crashing around You
yes i know that but this song isnt one to go alone especially without the amazing solo phil demel did. what i am basically saying is that not all songs need a solo but this needs its solo
i understand your love for metallica, i used to be obsessed with them back in high school. but i lost their respect a long time ago. although their old stuff will always be amazing, no doubt about it. the new stuff isnt amazing.
so im gonna be a cop when i get older. *pulls over someone going 15 over* *realizes they're listening to machine head* "oh, well that's okay. i cant go the speed limit while listening to machine head either." \m/ :D

It's very 2000s lol
Has anyone else noticed that Machine Head has an affinity for natural harmonics?
YOU DON'T SAY :D
'Cause natural harmonics sound so badass with distortion
Randy K. artificial sounds heavier
coughdropper FUCK YEAH. They add such a heavy dynamic, it's orgasmic.
+coughdropper i don't wanna seem ignorant.. but could someone explain to me what a natural harmonic is?
12 years ago, and I still remember the 1st time I heard that chorus... One of my fav songs ever
Same, can’t believe 12 years just passed tho
These guys actually came to my house once - my step dad at the time was their sound tech for their US tour a few years back; my mum made them Shepard's Pie.
Socialistdrummer cool story bro
Socialistdrummer i dont believe you. You have no shame.
Cuauhtli Martinez so? You can choose to believe them, but it won't change jack shit.
Pics or it didn’t happen
Socialistdrummer lucky bastard

This album in my personal opinion was machine heads absolute best album.
My rule tends to be don't put any more than two songs from one band into a playlist. It's gotta be the songs that I *really* like from them.
Just listen. Nothing else.
This song defines my childhood. This raged the metal in me. I wish one day I could see you perform live. Much love.
I'm going to see them live in october of 22
The transition from "I won't pray for you and "Halo/Follow/Sallow/Swallow" is how it feels to be struck by lightning or cut your worst enemy in half
I Can't Believe This Song Video Only Has 2 Million Views.😢
Well to be fair, the video is kinda cheesy, I came for the music and tolerated the video. One of my fav machine head tunes.
It's 2023 and I still think this band is criminally underrated.
Where I'm from you never hear about them
One of the greats, have stood the test of time, amazing band
Incredible band, the riff is just incredible, not complex, but nobody comes up with it.
Just like most of their songs. Undeniable facts
How does this get a single dislike its a masterpiece
DoDDz1lla religion, that's how
SmokeFurball .. religion? 🤔 😂.. there is religions more vicious than this song will ever be.. education is a beautiful thing
Maybe because the video is cringey as hell and it's not the full version
I know right.
So fucking right

This is one of the best songs of all time IMO and was incredible to see live.
I love this song but now I lay thee down takes the win for me
I see them live last week and i'm still with adrenaline in my veins. Hear this music live made me alive again! Thank you Machine Head for incredible show here in Brazil!!! Vai caralho!!!
even without the solo it's still badass
I agree but that solo is EPIC
Machine Head's best chorus.
machine head's guitars's harmonics kills...still da first day...
WHERE HAS THIS BAND BEEN ALL MY LIFE
Even though I like how heavy this song is I don't blame the ones who dislike this video considering the fact the good parts that make up this song such as the breakdown, Phil's solo & Robb & Phil's duet had been removed. Halo is not the same without those components.
2024 anyone?
Me
Going to see these guys at MAYHEM tomorrow in Camden New Jersey...can't wait.....Machine Head has so much raw energy.....
Well... how was it?
My favorite MH song of all time. The full version that is :)
The Chorus feels like a choir of metal angels
The main reason of this legendary song's views are 1,5 millions is not 150 millions is, that they cut off the FUCKING LEGENDARY SOLO, it was the heart of this song...
Damn those riffs are awesome!
this song is just incredible
I am falling in love with Machine Head all over again! Your new favourite band needn't be a new band! (Sorry Slayer, you know I'll always love you ,I'll be back)!😈
Anybody 2021??
This band is immortal
*_БОМБИЧЕСКИ и КРУТЕЦКИ!!!... Я - под ВПЕЧАТЛЕНИЕМ!!!... Аплодирую стоя!!!..._*
I agree. It feels really weird to listen to my favorite Machine Head song without the kickass solo. It feels too incomplete.
The greatest riff ever written.
Uwielbiam ten numer!
"And I won't pray for you." "Good luck with that." I can testify that, since the 1970's ('seventies) in my American locale, the locals that walk around the town have been saying, "Don't," and the attitude of proselytization is "expressive," in various fashions, of that they' will mentally concentrate on whomever they want.

More relevant right now than ever.
They should do a remastered version with SCOTUS instead of the pope
Saw them live at Rock in Park this year, just blew me away! Love this song ❤🤘
Play the song at 1.25 speed. it's not necessarily better, but it sounds pretty damn good and makes the song sound new all over again
+Philip Crawford That sounds badass!!!! Awesome!!!!
+Philip Crawford It actually does kinda better in my opinion. :P More badass now at this speed. XD Fantastic.
Philip Crawford play at x2 sounds like nü metal, honestly not that bad
at .75 speed it gets super brutal.
i think you all should leave it alone and play it at the correct speed, sounds pretty good to me
Going to see them tomorrow at the Warfield in San Francisco!!
There is no fight, just faith and perserverance. You are on our side of the inheritance of the earth. I will see to it.
I just played the sims 2 complete collection, just saw the songs in the game and was tremendously surprised that this one was in the game, i didn't knew this song, so thanks sims 2
That chorus🎸🎸😍
some of the purest metal ive ever heard!
🤤 man those machine head harmonics
I'm sorry I missed Halo at MGH tour in Sydney (I had to leave early) - the PA blew, clearly the venue couldn't handle the awesomeness that is Machine Head!
the one reason I can't get into this music video... is that they took out that glorious otherworldly guitar solo.
The middle section, which is the best part of the song, has been cut out!!!!
Love the complete version.
3:20 - one of the greatest moments in music history!!
sad.
From the era as MfH was my favorite Band… Yee love that song
My favourite MH song :)
Professional musicians playing metal
Love 🖤🤘 Saddest part of Blue Ridge Rock Festival was not seeing them .
1:12 and 1:38
Halo over our demise
Following a god so blind
Sallow in their sickening
Swallow not, the shit they feed
Great song from Nancy Sacco
Thanks for this
love it! just wish Robb make that hour long speach about Phil it was such a wine
this song is amazing live!!!!!!!!
I'm not there but i wish i was. My friend Alex told me that it was a masterpiece. Even today after all this this years he still get crazy over this motherfucking song. You are blessed to live this alive.
This is groovy
This band got some beasts !
uma das melhores músicas já feitas na história da humanidade
love this band and song
This song without the guitar solo is just criminal
Listening to this song for years, and i'm seeing this video for the first time.
Same here 😅🙃
Why do they have Makefile / "gcc compiler includes" in their video? (@0:26)
Yeah, DT still holds my personal record for "Longest songs I've ever listened to"...Octavarium...around 24 minutes right??
Top MH in 2024:
1. Halo
2. Imperium
3. Aesthetics of Hate
4. Now we Die
5. Vim
6. Sentinel (cover)
7. The Blood, The Sweat, The Tears
8. The Burning Red
9. All Falls Down
10. Crashing around You
just killin' ; it's simply
This song was playing over America November 8th 2016. And it's still echoing
That was a great day in American history
dude 9 min video will be a lot of money and its hard for some bands!!!!
this song is so good
Back when Flynn still had some fire in him and not churlish as he is today.
Endlich mal ein Musikvideo oder Trailer mit der besten Schauspielerin von "MY GIRL2"
glimpses of greatness
This must be Romain Grosjean's favorite song for the moment
I see you are a man of culture as well
gotta love there harmonics and dive bombs....
The best part is cut out of this version. What a shame.
Too bad the music video cut the song in half. Ten minutes to five lel
They did upload Now We Die at its entirety, and Darkness Within's music video is longer than the actual song.
lul true
Somebody is a modern day Angel
🤟TRUE MACHINE HEAD 🤟
yes i know that but this song isnt one to go alone especially without the amazing solo phil demel did. what i am basically saying is that not all songs need a solo but this needs its solo
Einer meiner Favoriten von Machine Head 🤘😷🤘
