** Robb Flynn has gone on record to say that he'll never perform the song "Five" live as it dealt with abuse trauma and was hard for him to even record. It's the only full song off ''The Burning Red'' that has never been performed.

* CreatorBacklash: Robb Flynn didn't want the cover of "Message in a Bottle" to be on the main tracklisting of ''The Burning Red'', which was originally recorded as a bonus b-side for international release until producer Ross Robinson pushed it to be part of the main tracks. He still can't stand it to this day, even with it being as popular as it is, and the band have almost never played it live as a result.

* TooSoon: The music video "Crashing Around You" featured falling buildings, which would have been fine had the video not been released shortly after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks (the video was conceived and shot months before the attacks). The video was banned by MTV, which caused Roadrunner Records to drop Machine Head from their label. The band later rejoined the label after every label but Roadrunner rejected their album Through the Ashes of Empires.

* CreativeDifferences: Why Demmel and [=McClain=] left. By the end, it was basically Robb Flynn's solo project with a backing band, and Flynn's increasingly autocratic nature culminated in ''Catharsis'', which the two absolutely hated to the point of actively regretting having their names on it, and Demmel in particular wasn't even talking to Flynn by the final year or so unless he absolutely needed to.
