The Machine

The Machine plays heavy, psychedelic rock in a powertrio tradition. The current line-up exists since October 2007. Shortly thereafter, they released their debut album “Shadow of the Machine” on their own in December 2007. This record marked their entry into the stonerrock scene and gained some modest international interest.

The follow up, “Solar Corona”, was released early 2009. For this release, the band signed a deal with the German Nasoni Records and it's available on both CD and (coloured SOLD OUT!) 2LP vinyl. “Solar Corona” features long, partially instrumental tracks which contain a lot of diversity. These Dutch guys offer you straightforward heavy riffing, melodic passages, atmospherical soundscapes and an overall touch of psychedelia.

When playing live, The Machine regularly stretches songs by incorporating improvised jams in their sets. Everything’s done with a passion and chemistry, that a lot of contemporary rock is missing. The band is already writing new material for a next album, recordings are scheduled for the last weeks of 2009.
The third album “Drie” was released via the German label Elektrohasch on limited colour vinyl and black vinyl in 2010. There is a CD version, too.
The Machine has some (inter-)national shows/tours in their scheme.
