Machine Head to Cover Pantera for Upcoming Tribute CD

According to The Metal Den, Machine Head’s recently announced cover of Pantera’s “Fucking Hostile” is reportedly going to be appear on an upcoming Pantera tribute CD that’s being assembled by an unrevealed UK metal magazine. The disc (it’s being said) is to feature numerous current scene heavyweights covering songs from the great Texas band’s back catalogue.

Machine Head vocalist/guitarist Robb Flynn had this to say,

”Found time to hop into Trident Studios with Juan Urteaga and record a PANTERA tune for a b-side. We’re doing ‘Fucking Hostile’!!! Dave is done with drums (nailed it on the second take!), and I finished guitars yesterday and got vocals in the bag. Phil comes in tomorrow, then Adam, then it’ll be mixed and mastered by the end of the week. Mike Sloat has been documenting, so we’ll probably have video snippets up when the whole thing gets closer to release. We also just announced our sole U.S. headline date on November 6 in NY, so FUCKIN’ A!!! Come make a road trip to N.Y. for some raging metal!!!”
