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.

Nausea Lyrics

Machine Head

One more time youve
Gotten into my head
Ive let your words get
Into me
Every time I try to talk,
You never listen
You got the answers,
I dont know a thing
But you ask me what these
Lights are in my eyes
Theyre a freight train
Ahead
And theyre straight
Coming your way
Youve tied yourself down
To the tracks
Now you want help from me
To cut you free
If it was me
My hour of need
Youd leave me there to
Bleed
Im fucking sick of you
And all that shit youre
Pulling
Your fuckin attitude
Had better go on
You cheat and you lie
And you stole and denied
And you turned on your
Friends
When you burned all those
Bridges
This time you wont be
Getting under my skin
What you had Ive taken
Away
Tell me what youre gonna
Do, it doesnt matter
Youre always talking, it
Dont mean a thing
So ask me what these
Lights are in my eyes
Theyre a freight train
Ahead
And theyre straight
Coming your way
Youve tied yourself down
To the tracks
Now you want help from me
To cut you free
If it was me
My hour of need
Youd leave me there to
Bleed
Im fucking sick of you
And all that shit youre
Pulling
Your fuckin attitude
Had better go on
You cheat and you lie
And you stole and denied
And you turned on your
Friends
When you burned all those
Bridges
Well you sat there and
Cried
As these words came to
Glide
Through your delicate skin
Leaving blood on these
Pages
So how does it feel
To be at one with the fate i
Seal
Theyre a freight train
Ahead
And theyre straight
Coming your way
Youve tied yourself down
To the tracks
Now you want help from
Me to cut you free
If it was me
My hour of need
Youd leave me there
To bleed
Im fucking sick of you
And all that shit youre
Pulling
Your fuckin attitude
Had better go on
You cheat and you lie
And you stole and denied
And you turned on your
Friends
When you burned all those
Bridges.
