Building on the band's previous "An Evening With…" format, the "Burn My Eyes" anniversary show is described in a press release as "a three-hour musical extravaganza," comprised of two parts: part one consists of a battery of MACHINE HEAD 's modern classics, such as "Imperium" , "Halo" and "Locust" , featuring guitarist/vocalist Robb Flynn and bassist Jared MacEachern performing alongside new recruits, Polish guitarist Wacław "Vogg" Kiełtyka ( DECAPITATED ) and British drummer Matt Alston ( DEVILMENT , EASTERN FRONT ); part two features "Burn My Eyes" played in its entirety for the first time ever, with original drummer Chris Kontos and guitarist Logan Mader joining in.

The North American leg of MACHINE HEAD 's "Burn My Eyes" 25th-anniversary tour will kick off in Phoenix on January 16, and continue across Texas, Florida, New York, Toronto, Chicago and Denver, wrapping up at the legendary Fox Theater in Oakland, California on February 21 and House Of Blues in Anaheim, California on February 22.

Flynn spoke to U.K.'s Kerrang! magazine about the decision to effectively split the set with new musicians playing the non- "Burn My Eyes" songs. He said: "As I was figuring it out with Logan , Chris and Jared , I explained that I can't even imagine playing a MACHINE HEAD show and not playing 'Halo' ; 'Imperium' ; 'Aesthetics Of Hate' ; 'From This Day' ; 'The Blood, The Sweat, The Tears…' , 'Now We Die' — or even 'Catharsis' . 'Darkness Within' is a show-stopping moment, every time. We had to think about how we were going to pull this off. I wanted to honor Chris and Logan and not have them needing to learn 40 other fucking songs to be able to pull it off.

"It's kind of weird. We're gonna have a lot of motherfuckers on tour," he said. "But it's gonna be fucking awesome. I think it's gonna be a bit of a goddamn circus. I really want to pay tribute to the guys that were there and built it with me. I think it's gonna break the fucking Internet!"

Kontos left MACHINE HEAD before the release of the band's second album, 1997's "The More Things Change" , and was replaced by Dave McClain .

Mader contributed to two MACHINE HEAD albums, the aforementioned "Burn My Eyes" and "The More Things Change" , before exiting the group and being replaced by Ahrue Luster and, later on, Phil Demmel .

Demmel and McClain exited MACHINE HEAD last fall.
