Machine Head Celebrate 14 Years of "Unto the Locust" with "Electric Happy Hour" Stream

The live stream, which took place on Thursday, September 26, 2025, saw frontman Robb Flynn and bassist Jared MacEachern, deliver a blistering, track-by-track performance of the fan-favorite seventh studio album. The "Electric Happy Hour" format, a staple for the band since its inception during the pandemic, brought the energy of a live show right into the homes of their dedicated "Head Cases."

The two-hour stream was a ferocious reminder of the album's dynamic power, which blends thrash fury with progressive elements. Fans were treated to intense renditions of signature tracks like the multi-part epic "I Am Hell (Sonata in C#)" and the anthemic "Locust," showcasing the band's enduring musical complexity and raw aggression.

Unto the Locust, originally released in 2011, marked a major critical and commercial success for the band, reinforcing their status as heavy metal standard-bearers.
