The Machines - 'The Machines' - Album





	'Veglam Webzine' April 26th, 2012 The Machines - Album Review by Laurent
"......There was a time when Punk also meant Rock'n'Roll and The Machines know this very well, sometimes reminding me of The Professionals and The Heartbreakers on their most recent songs. The old songs sound more raw and angry but can still make you (Pogo) dance!......" Laurent, Veglam Webzine

	'Vive Le Rock' #6, Spring, 2012 The Machines - Album Review by Hugh Gulland
"......Front Machine Nick Paul plays a mean, low slung Gibson, and cuts such as 'Cyclone' and 'Girl in Black' reveal a definite empathy with New York City's originals, such as The Dictators or The Heartbreakers......" 7/10 Hugh Gulland, Vive Le Rock Magazine

	'Sonic Shocks' February, 2012 The Machines - Album Review by Cristina Massei
"...There are newer tunes like the awesome ‘Weekend’ – blues suede shoes required – and ‘Girl in Black’, a brilliant tribute to Johnny Thunder..." "...The EP songs have a rawer edge compared to more recent recordings, but the whole CD is a mood booster, an explosion of high energy punk rock the way it should be done..."

	'Retro Man Blog' January 8th, 2012 The Machines - Album Review by Steve Worral
"...It's a great album of uptempo, catchy Punk Rock 'n' Roll, no frills but lots of thrills with a sound that resembles Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers New Yorks Punk meeting The Clash's first album head on. The new recordings, such as the brilliant "Cyclone" and "Girl In Black", stack up well against the remarkably fresh sounding tracks of 1977 and '78..." Steve Worral , Retro Man Blog

	'Punk Globe Magazine' January 2012 The Machines - Album Review by Lisa Booth
"...They're a great punk rock band who I had heard of. I must say the CD was pretty damn good. I was decorating and jammed out their CD which kept me motivated! There is some good punk rock sound there, with a New York sound wave... A hint of The New York Dolls rings to mind." " I found it easy to catch the words and hum and sing along to, I really enjoyed it! I totally recommend this CD. If your into some punk and wanna hear some new sounds, it is true and as real as it can get. Totally motivational!..." Lisa Booth, Punk Globe Magazine
