Through The Ashes of Empires

Through The Ashes Of Empires

ifth studio album by heavy metal band Machine Head. The album does not feature any of the conventions Machine Head featured on their previous two albums, and more closely resembled the style of their debut Burn My Eyes and their second album The More Things Change... It was released in the UK, Europe and Australia on the Roadrunner Records International label on December 16, 2003. At this stage, Machine Head still did not have an American record deal, having parted ways with Roadrunner Records US after the Supercharger album was released. Through The Ashes of Empires was such a success that Roadrunner Records US, in an unprecedented move, quickly offered Machine Head a new contract and the album finally reached North America on April 20, 2004.

On December 9 2011, the album was certified Silver by the British Phonographic Industry.

Famous quotes containing the word ashes:

    Man is no starre, but a quick coal
    Of mortall fire:
    Who blows it not, nor doth controll
    A faint desire,
    Lets his own ashes choke his soul.
    George Herbert (1593–1633)
