An American heavy metal band founded in 1992 in Oakland, California, Machine Head has been classified as one of the pioneers in the New Wave of American Heavy Metal. Started by the vocalist and guitarist, Rob Flynn and bass guitarist, Adam Duce, along with guitarist Logan Mader and drummer Tony Constanza, Machine Head has only seen 4 separate changes in band members during their entire succession as a band in the last 17 years of operation. Although the name has spiked some controversy about it stemming from a Deep Purple album of the same name, Flynn compiled the name under the thought that it 'sounded cool'. Currently Machine Head members consist of Rob Flynn, Adam Duce, Dave McClain and Phil Demmel.
During the production of their debut album Burn My Eyes, Constanza left the band and was replaced by Chris Kontos. During an Ozzfest tour to support The More Things Change and The Burning Red, Mader quit the band and was replaced by Ahrue Luster in order for Machine Head to continue touring. With issues surrounding Roadrunner Records, Machine Head was forced to leave the American label of Roadrunner but stayed on with Roadrunner International while Luster left the band due to individual musical discrepancies. Demmel filled in as a temporary band member and eventually joined Machine Head as a full-time member.
Machine Head currently has 6 studio releases to their accomplishments over the duration of their time together. Burn My Eyes (1984), The More Things Change (1997), The Burning Red (1999), Supercharger (2001), Through the Ashes of Empires (2003) and The Blackening (2007) have all molded Machine Head and their fan following to what they are today. The Machine Head album of Supercharger in 2001 was ill timed due to the effects of 9/11 attacks and the music video that depicted buildings crashing down and the skyline of flames. Although the video was produced before the fateful attacks, it was still banned from MTV due to its graphic nature and criticism.
As part of the expanding Machine Head merch available for their fans, October 2005 brought the release of the very first Machine Head DVD - Elegies. This contained footage of a concert from the Brixton Academy show in December of 2004 as well as 3 music videos. With detailed documentary aspects including historical aspects of the band and their battles with record labels during their years together, and the changing members and the musical direction of the band themselves, the DVD proved to be a successful venture for Machine Head reaching high spots in both the American and UK markets.
The most recent release for Machine Head, The Blackening in 2007 was highly acclaimed by critics all around the world, including the UK, Germany, Australia, Sweden, Ireland, France and North America. For those fans in the UK looking for special Machine Head merch, the UK version included a bonus track and a bonus DVD that showed The Making Of The Blackening as well as live appearance footage from the 2006 US Sounds of The Underground tour.

Alternate Fuels For Lorries
So, we all know that the price of haulage fuel in the UK is ridiculous at the moment, with lorry fuel costing 50p per litre in the UK as compared to 25p per litre in mainland Europe. It really is a rip off bleeding us dry.
With many owner operators and haulage companies struggling with the increased strain on their budget, is there an alternative? Well the good news is yes, but the bad news is that some of the strange and wonderful haulage fuel sources aren't exactly widely available alternative to groupage techniques as a solution to cash flow problems...
Gas doesn't grow on trees y'know... oh wait
It may surprise some readers to learn that oil can in fact grow on trees! Well, not any tree, but the Brazillian Copaifera langsdorfi which can be tapped for a natural diesel fuel that needs just a little filtering before it is poured into your lorry's fuel tank. With just 182,500,000 acres of these plants, you could match the annual oil output of Saudi Arabia (to put that into perspective, the USA alone has 6,050,697,738 acres of land).
Of course there is a catch - this particular lorry fuel only has a shelf life of 3 months. The trees also take 15-20 years to mature, and who knows what solutions scientists may have found in that time?
Nothing says go like a cup of joe!
It may not exactly be practical but some bright sparks have managed to get their lorry fuelled by coffee grounds. The concept-vehicle has a wood gas generator running and the coffee is burned into a combustible gas, which is then filtered through to the engine and bingo: a fully fledged caffeine-mobile! Turns out your pick-up-truck may be in need of a caffeine pick-me-up!
Trucks powered by illegal alcohol
On the opposite end of the spectrum, most people would argue that alcohol typically slows them down rather than making them more productive, but lorries, buses and trains in Sweden have found the reverse to be true!
Customs services in Sweden were getting so tired of pouring away the 185,000 gallons of alcohol seized each year, that they needed a new solution, which is where the idea of converting the booze to biogas to use as haulage fuel came from. It now powers over 1,000 trucks and buses and 1 train, making not only for a cheap (well, it's free for the customs officers!), but environmentally friendly solution!
One truck's trash is another truck's treasure
Last month, plans were announced for 300 rubbish trucks in California to switch to being powered by the very waste they take to the landfills. Landfill gas is to be purified and liquefied producing a massive 13,000 gallons of liquefied natural gas per day. As well as being a novel idea, it will reduce carbon emissions by more than 30,000 tonnes per year!
Would you like fries with that?
Last year, McDonalds announced that it would be recycling its cooking oil to be converted into biofuel for its delivery fleet. Previously the company's delivery fleet used 6 million litres of oil while delivering stock to its 1,200 restaurants when those very establishments had their own lorry fuel literally under their noses! As well as having great green credentials (don't they all?) the fuel does not have any odour, despite Matthew Howe, the senior vice-president of McDonalds UK pointing out what brilliant marketing that would be: "If our trucks drove around the High Street and it smelt of our fries, what a Pavlovian effect, it would be fantastic but unfortunately it does not".
So for the moment at least, it's probably best for haulage companies and owner operators to stick to traditional haulage fuels and make use of groupage techniques to keep costs down, but it's good to know that virtually anything can be used to power our vehicles in the future, when the government succeeds in bleeding our industry dry...
