MACHINE HEAD

The ninth full-length studio album by legendary American Groove/Nu Metal band.
The album is the first to be credited as completely co-written by all the band's members since "The More Things Change..." (1997). "Catharsis" saw the band stylistically returning to the Nu Metal-inspired sound of their previous albums, "The Burning Red" (1999) and "Supercharger" (2001).
"Catharsis" is the final Machine Head studio album to feature drummer Dave McClain and guitarist Phil Demmel, who both left the band in late September 2018 over their dislike with the album's direction and conflicts with Robb Flynn. Phil Demmel has publicly admitted his distaste for the album in many interviews after he left the band.
A significant proportion of the band's fanbase reacted negatively to the album online. As a result, Robb Flynn responded to the criticism in his single "Do Or Die", released in 2019.
"Catharsis" would go on to become Machine Head's best international chart debut, debuting at number three in Germany, number 10 in Australia, and number 12 in the UK.
