July 1988, Vio-Lence, Milwaukee Metal Fest, feathered hair, "metal up your ass" shirt, Kramer axe, no tats, 20 years old, one of the best memories from my early touring life, that show was absolutely insane.
Saturday, June 6, 2026 I'll be returning to @mkemetalfest , love Milwaukee, love Jamey Jasta, fantastic lineup ... nowhere near as much hair (and definitely not feathered😆), gig shirt still smells like a cat box, Kramer ax was stolen, ready to make it one of the best memories of my life, this show will be insane. Come out and rage.👊🏻

One year ago today, we released UNATØNED. A lean, aggressive, no-frills record built to hit hard and move fast.
There was plenty of noise around this album when it dropped: “reactions", "hot takes", bot attacks, click-bait galore, the usual internet circus.
But one year later, the truth is where it’s always been:
In the songs.
On the stage.
In the crowd.
Night after night on tour, these tracks have taken on a whole new life. BØNESCRAPER and ØUTSIDER in particular have become absolute modern-day crushers live - the kind of songs that shake the room and come back twice as heavy when thousands of voices are screaming them with us.
Metal Hammer called it “mercilessly to-the-point, with 10 lean, mean and ruthlessly succinct songs."
We’ll take that.
One year later, UNATØNED feels battle-tested, road-worn, and stronger than ever.
How does the album hold up for you now?
Have you caught these songs live yet?
What tracks hit hardest a year later?

"THE BLACKENING" LONGSLEEVE... A CLOSER LOOK. **Limited Edition - Only 10 Days Left**
A full-scale visual tribute to The Blackening, this long sleeve brings together the album’s iconic woodcut aesthetic with a modern brutalist edge.
Built from the original etching style of the record artwork, the design weaves together motifs from across the album - each panel reflecting the dark, layered themes of the songs themselves. The front features The Blackening logo over reworked album art, surrounded by new elements inspired by Halo, Wolves, and A Farewell to Arms.
The back pulls from the original tracklist layout, reimagined through a series of stark, structured panels - the left panel representing Slanderous and the right panel representing Now I Lay Thee Down.
Both sleeves carry detailed artwork - including a reworked skeletal angel on the right sleeve, and additional imagery tied to Clenching The Fists Of Dissent, Beautiful Mourning and Aesthetics of Hate on the left sleeve.
Dense, intricate, and deliberately uncompromising, this piece leans into a grim, classical, almost medieval atmosphere - a wearable extension of the world The Blackening created.
Printed on a premium long sleeve.

COPENHAGEN! Please can we open every tour with you all?! An amazing opening night, you guys left nothing out there at all. It was one of those beautiful nights where the balcony raged as hard as the floor, and the floor was going at it HARD!
Shout outs to the Head Cases who displayed some elite level beer catching and to the entire team at @vegacph for their amazing hospitality, especially the security team who looked after every one of the flood of crowd surfers superbly.
Thank you Copenhagen, you guys ruled!!

ROBB X IGNITE. Robb jumped on stage with OC hard-core legends @igniteband for a blistering version of their song "Bleeding", says Robb "We covered this song about 12 years ago… last night I got to get up there and sing it with them.
Full circle moment. Truly honored."👊🏻
THE BLACKENING TURNS 19. In 2007, Machine Head unleashed The Blackening on an unsuspecting world. At a time when many had counted us out, songs like Aesthetics Of Hate, Beautiful Mourning, and the almighty Halo hit — and everything changed.
What followed was 3+ years on the road:
300+ shows, tours with Slipknot & Metallica, arena runs with Trivium, Arch Enemy, DragonForce…
“Album of the Year.”
“Album of the Decade.”
Grammy nominations.
It was a wild ride.
19 years later… how does The Blackening hold up for you?
Favorite track? Deep cut you want to hear live?
