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.

Nothin' Left Lyrics

Machine Head

Withered away I see it
Every day complacent
Desecrates the fabric of lies
Emptiness fills inside me
Bitterness has denied me
Faith like this well
Could I really give a shit
When I feel it
Come falling
I turn you away
I am the things that you fear
My leap of faith without a sound
Don't push my back against the wall
Yes I have strength will never fall, will never
Withered inside
This soul has petrified
As concrete fills the skies
This life is disarray
Consequence every action
Brings violence from the passions
Loneliness the emotion withering inside
When I feel it
Come falling
I turn you away
I am the things that you fear
My leap of faith without a sound
Don't push my back against the wall
Yes I have strength will never fall
I feel around the fall is on
For so long I've been away..away
For years to now been holdin' on
For so long I've been away.. away
I have nothing left for nobody else
I have nothing left for nobody
Feel it
Come falling
I turn you away
I am the things that you fear
My leap of faith without a sound
Don't push my back against the wall
Yes I have strength will never fall
