Metal Hammer spoke to Machine Head frontman Robb Flynn about their decision to cover the Vulgar Display of Power classic, "Fucking Hostile."

"It was either that or "Strength beyond Strength" from Far beyond Driven," said Flynn. "In the end, we decided that we wanted to do a classic. We chose "Fucking Hostile" because it's two and a half minutes of pure, raging metal. It's short, fast and brutal. There's some real intricate riffing parts in there. We'd jammed it before but we'd never sat down and analyzed it properly. I think we did a great job on it."

I'm surprised noone covered Cowboys from Hell. I hear Buckethead did a tribute to him. Wonder why they didn't add that?

R.I.P Dimebag. You went to the Cemetary Gates too soon.
