Bloodstone & Diamonds is the eighth studio album by American heavy metal band Machine Head, released via Nuclear Blast on November 7, 2014. It is the first album to feature Jared MacEachern who replaced founding bassist Adam Duce in 2013. Although the album does not have a title track, the album gets its name from a lyric from "Now We Die".

"Sail into the Black" was featured in the video package for the triple threat match between Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and CM Punk in Night 1 of Wrestlemania 41.
