Robb Flynn also got interviewed
Robb Flynn of Machine Head got interviewed by a site called LocalBozo. I got a threat warning when trying to view the original site, so I’m not gonna link it here — I’m sure it’s an error, so no hate towards that site, but I simply can’t risk infecting our readers. Not that I care about their computers, I just think God will punish me for eternity. 🙁
You can listen to the chat above through the magic of embedding, though, because what else am I gonna post on the site today? Metal needs to be revived, yo, there’s barely anything to write about today.
Speaking of Machine Head, they’re on another festival with Limp Bizkit, and yet again, they are below them in the lineup. Haha!
We weren’t around when the drama happened, but Metalsucks were, so you can read about it here (for nostalgia factor, or if you’ve never heard of it).
Video interview with Robb Flynn
Above, you can watch a brand new video interview with Machine Head‘s Robb Flynn, courtesy of Metal Injection.
In the interview, Robb discusses his love for ham sandwiches, gives tips on how to ride a bike, and finally offers his views on the US presidential election for 2012.
Nah, just kidding. I think he discusses the band’s new album or something. I don’t know, what am I, your mom? Just watch the video already!
Weak Recap: We be winning, playa
It’s no secret that we’re amazing, and we’re pretty modest about it, too. I mean, the rest of the guys who write for this site aren’t really that awesome, but compared to your boring ass, they’re Gods. I, on the other hand, am absolutely sublime. I truly believe a few decades from now people will be quoting my posts and giving them as examples of literary genius.
So why would I, of all people, interview the other writers for this site? Isn’t it a bit like Mozart interviewing Linkin Park? Yes it is, but unlike Mozart, I am pretty humble. And good looking.
Anyway, make the jump and read my interview with some of metal’s worst writers… Ever.
Robb Flynn wants to be in Metallica
Like I told you a few days ago, everyone seems to be ‘hearting’ Metallica in the press lately. I’m guessing the whole ‘Let’s bash Metallica cause they’re popular’ movement kind of died down, unless you count the peeps commenting on Blabbermouth articles.
Robb Flynn of Machine Head is the latest musician to give praise to the guys. Here’s what he had to say about the band:
“They’re amazing. They are a real band – one of the last real bands alive. Lifers. The way they arrange their set and blend their set, it’s the magnitude of everything. To me, it was a dream come true. I’m from the Bay and they were my idols. Just to see how much bigger that big could be and where things could really go.“

Keep it in your pants, Robb, jeez.
When asked which member of Metallica he’d like to french, Robb had no comment. He just got all red, said ‘tee hee hee!’ and went to the bathroom.
Robb Flynn thinks upcoming Machine Head album sucks
No, he doesn’t. But wouldn’t it be refreshing to hear a musician badmouth their own upcoming product? Of course, Robb Flynn is “really proud of what we [Machine Head] were able to accomplish on the record [Unto The Locust].”
That’s really boring now, isn’t it? So let’s pretend we’re in bizarro world and everything’s different to what it’s like in this world. Here is what Robb Flynn recently really said in an interview with Knac.com:
“I was thinking, “You know, I’ve been singing fifteen years now. I’m not going to start taking lessons now. Who do I look like? James Hetfield?” I have never taken lessons before and I never warm-up either. I basically hurt my voice on purpose. You’ve got to destroy your voice if you want to be metal. Also, I’d never even think about taking classical guitar lessons. I’m Robb fucking Flynn. My playing is already perfect. That would usually show on the record but it doesn’t. I just drank fifteen bottles of whiskey daily and that definitely shows on the record. Don’t buy Unto The Locust when it drops. I’m really ashamed of what we’ve done on the record.”
Obviously in this world, Flynn didn’t say that. You can either go and read the real interview or stay with me in bizarro world. It’s up to you.
