MACHINE FUCKING HEAD, MACHINE FUCKING HEAD, and so on. The Bay Area giants are rolling nicely towards the release of their ninth studio record Catharsis from which they've released a brand new track! You can check out the explosive Beyond The Pale below!
Commenting on the new album, which is set to be released on 26th January via Nuclear Blast Entertainment, Robb Flynn offered up his thoughts - "There are a lot of special songs on this record. I've never really felt like, 'Wow, we've got something really special here!' before, but this time I can feel it. I know it. I know some people aren't gonna dig it and that's always the case, so who cares? I dig it."
