Intricately arranged symphonies of distorted analog sounds soar upward alongside digital accoutrements before being blown apart by what sounds like fireworks. The Machines channel a myriad of influences, blending Pink Floyd's early space rock romanticism with Neu's static-happy electro drones, and Spiritualized's post-shoegazer tremolos with My Bloody Valentine's warbling walls of guitar effects. Singer Ben Curtis has a Flaming-Lips-by-way-of-Neil-Young style on some songs but seems most at home when accompanied by two-part vocal harmonies. Their music flirts heavily with various psychedelic styles, but you don't need to take mind-bending drugs to enjoy it. - Eric SheaSpace Rocken720Mon, 23 Nov 2009 06:22:28 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.57067&rws=%2Fsecret-machines%2Fdiscography.rss Graduates from the University of Audio Alchemy, the Secret Machines create music that's just as mechanical as it's organic.
