Bay Area icons Machine Head have announced an Australian tour for 2024.
The Slaughter The Martøur Australia 2024 Tour will see Machine Head forgo their An Evening With… format for the first time in a decade, enabling Los Angeles industrial metal masters Fear Factory to join them on all shows.
This epic double bill will see the two giants of metal join forces down under in March to blow audiences away in Perth, Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.
Tickets for all shows go on sale Wednesday 25 October at 9 am local time, with a pre-sale available from Monday 23 October at 9 am local time. Tickets, further details and pre-sale registration are all via Metropolis Touring.
These two metal giants have a combined history that spans multiple decades and have consistently delivered some of the most influential and groundbreaking music in the genre.
Widely known for their genre-crushing riffs and epic anthems that have ignited mosh pits worldwide, Machine Head will be supporting their latest album, ØF KINGDØM AND CRØWN on the tour.
Adding to the chaos is the lethal cyber-attack of Fear Factory which will be a metallic match made in Hades, destined to create a tour experience like no other.
Speaking on the tour announcement Machine Head founder Robb Flynn shares "Aussie Head Cases! This tour will be insane!! So stoked to be getting back on the road in Australia and New Zealand with this absolutely earth-shattering bill. Fear Factory have long been our brothers-in-arms, pioneers of a sound that had yet to exist. Oz, we’re ready to crush skulls, crush shoeys, and crush everything in our path!”
Fear Factory's Dino Cazares had this to say on joining the tour “We are honoured to be touring with the mighty Machine Head. Plus Robb has been a good friend of mine for close to 30 years. We are fucking excited for the metal fans to see this amazing package and we can’t wait to get out there. Let’s Fucking Rage!"
Fans can expect a sonic assault as both bands promise to unleash tracks from their extensive catalogues. This is a rare opportunity for Australian metalheads to witness not one, but two of the genre's most legendary acts in a single night of pure, unadulterated metal mayhem.
