'The Blackening' Named Metal Hammer's Album of the Decade
top albums of the decade, and proudly holding the #1 spot is Machine Head's 2007 crusher The Blackening. Declares Metal Hammer, "The finest album to date by one of the bands that most powerfully encapsulate everything that this magazine stands for and that our readers believe in, The Blackening not only re-establishes Machine Head as one of the most important metal bands on the planet, but also made a mockery of the notion that the album is dead."
Responding to the news, frontman Robb Flynn tells Metal Hammer, "This is just un-fucking-believable! Oh my fucking god! it's mindblowing for us, because there have been some amazing albums over the last 10 years. To think that ours is number one to people is kind of hard to get your head around, you know?"
Read the whole thing on newstands now, and to further celebrate this achievment, listen to "Halo" below, watch the video for "Aesthetics of Hate" and if you don't own it yet, snag a special edition copy of this Number One Album at an extra special discount RIGHT HERE!

This album restored my faith in Machine Head! Though I still like all their albums cause each one has it's own feel and identity!.
