Fabio Delibo, guitarist and vocalist states: "Machinage is very proud to announce that we will be back in the US this year for another tour and better than that we will be playing again at one of the greatest events we have been involved with in our resent history, the Warriors Of Metal Fest Open Air! We would like to thank all the support bands of the Pre-Fest Showcase for sacrificing 5 minutes of their playing time so that we can be added to their lineup. Furthermore, we couldn't be happier to say we will for the first time play an entire set of all new materials from our upcoming 2nd album with the ex-Annihilator, ex-Nevermore guitarist, founder of the Ohio Power Thrash Metal band Shatter Messiah, and the producer of our sophomore record, Curran Murphy, Only at the Pre-Fest Showcase of the Warriors Of Metal Fest VI Open Air. Last year we had an unforgettable live jam session with Nuclear Assault's John Connelly while on tour in Queens, New York and this year we'll play a whole set with Curran Murphy....WOW!!! Here is our 2012 Tour Video Blog with the Live footage of that night in Queens. Enjoy!"
