Founded in 1992 by former Vio-lence guitarist Robert Flynn and Adam Duce. The first song on their debut album, "Davidian", features the lyrics "Let freedom ring / with a shotgun blast". Subsequently the video was banned from MTV due to its release date being very soon after the Waco Siege which it was apparently describing. Robb Flynn has since said that the song "Davidian" was not written about the Waco Siege but added that line to get people thinking. After their debut album Burn My Eyes (1994) Chris Kontos left to work with Testament and a stand in drummer was used for Machine Head's Donington slot in 1995.

Bay Of Pigs Lyrics

Machine Head

I gotta rise, Im sick of your lies
And I wont be your scapegoat now
Aint gonna bend
And wont til the end
Understand on my word I vow
A pig, a pig, thats all youll ever be
Refuse to cower to the swine
Im sick of it, at the end of my wits
cause next time that you fuck with mine
Im gonna snap like
I never have before
Your laws the flaw
Upon this nation
Your lies despised
By generations
I got a friend might
Not walk again
And your laws
Never helped at all
Go fuck your clause, your
Probable cause
Power trippin above us tall
Afraid, afraid and so you better be
cause when I call youre not around
Serve and protect
And give some respect
Next time that you shake me down
Im gonna snap like
I never have before
Your laws the flaw
Upon this nation
Your lies despised
By generations
Your lies despised
Your laws the flaw
Upon this nation
Upon this nation
Upon this nation
Your lies despised
By generations
