Machine Head set to infect Birmingham NIA
Thursday 23rd June 2011, 8:40AM BST.
Californian heavy metal monsters Machine Head are set to infect Birmingham when their Eighth Plague tour lands at the NIA in December.
The band promises to “collide with the land and lay waste to every city in their path” and the home of metal will, of course, be no exception as Machine Head are set to rock up at Birmingham’s NIA on Sunday December 4, 2011.
The Eighth Plague Tour is in support of Machine Head’s forthcoming album Unto The Locust, out late September.

Support comes from British Metalcore band Bring Me The Horizon, as well as labelmates Devildriver and Darkest Hour.
“This will no doubt be the heaviest show you’re going to see this year” said Machine Head frontman and guitarist Robb Flynn. “A lot of the greatest shows of our last touring cycle were in Europe and the UK, so the prospect of this line-up combined with these crowds has us extremely stoked to get out there and tear it up!
“New material, great venues, killer fans . . . we absolutely cannot wait!”
Bring Me The Horizon vocalist Oliver Sykes added: “We’re proper excited for these dates with Machine Head! We were listening to them before we even started BMTH, so to be going on tour with them is blowin’ our minds! These will be our last UK/Euro dates before we take a break to record our next album as well, so it’s gonna be mental! We honestly can’t wait.”
