Mechanical Bull marked a return to the raw, energetic rock and roll of their earlier work after the more polished stadium anthems of 'Come Around Sundown.' The album saw the band re-embracing their Southern roots while still maintaining their arena-ready status.
- The album was recorded at The Woodshed, the band's personal studio in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
- It debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart and number 12 on the US Billboard 200.
- The album's title comes from a bull riding machine at a rodeo the band attended.
