Reaching way out past the well worn stoner rock blueprint to pastures far far more stimulating and rewarding, Sweden�s The Awesome Machine are suddenly immense. Three albums in and they�re now right up there with the very best. They�ve got some of the classic old school qualities of those early 90�s Candlemass times; they�re massively powerful and suddenly very special. The perfectly named band does not sound like anyone else, they�re just plugged in to the source in a way the REAL classic stoner doom bands of past times have been � Candlemass, St.Vitus - and take it somewhere the others don�t.

The Awesome Machine mix their doom with a dark edge psychedelic swirl, a flavored medieval trance state and this spellbinding guitar sound that�s all of their own. The Awesome Machine pace everything just so perfectly and when they do hook in to more obvious territory it still sounds massive in a very rewarding Soundgarden/Kyuss/Queens kind of way. The real treasures are when they really get out there and reach the places none of the others go. The Awesome Machine are not just another stoner rock band, they�re a uniquely massive band and this is highly recommended. One of the albums of the year.
