Screeching guitars, pounding drums, bombastic synthesizers, strange but captivating vocals. All these elements unite and culminate in the music of Sentient Machine.
Sentient Machine’s songs are built with driving rhythms and strong hooks wrapped in a wash of noise and exotic samples. A screamingly loud chorus can shrink down to little more than a whisper in a matter of seconds.
It's music that's meant to be just as gut wrenching and visceral as it is eccentric and chaotic. Like a seven-year old schizophrenic it wavers between invitingly playful and a surrealistic nightmare.
It's been quiet as of late, and that's because we've been working on lots of new music for our next album!
Sneak previews of what we've been doing to follow in the weeks to come.
Working on more new material, and it's the heaviest and nastiest we've created so far.
Our goal is get a complete LP done by Fall of 2012. You know, to give people something to listen to for 3 months until the apocalypse happens.
The Sentient Machine team has been hard at work lately writing new material and booking gigs for the fall.
In the meantime, we decided to have some fun and cranked out a cover of Tom Waits' new single 'Bad As Me.'
Check it out on Youtube here and leave us a comment or two while you're at it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_4MP0SsJCo
To accommodate all your music streaming needs, our album is now on Spotify! Give us a spin sometime!
It's been a little while. We've spent the last few months writing some new music, reworking some of the older stuff, and having babies, but we're coming back and we're even better than before!
Look for new show dates and tracks soon. Until then.
We'll be taking a short break from gigging starting in June to focus on writing new material and recording, so make sure to come on out to our show April 1st at Connolly's Klub. It'll be a blast!
That's right.
Our song James Brown New Year's Eve Bash is now available as a free download for the Guitar Hero game on the iPhone! So if you like Guitar Hero and have an iPhone, go get the game and rock out hard to some Sentient Machine.
Our very own Steve Plesnarski is now officially endorsed by Paiste cymbals!
Now we need to get one of those giant John Bonham style gongs.
Our album is now available on iTunes!
We're still keeping our album available as a free download on our bandcamp site, but if you like our music and feel like supporting the band go down to iTunes and pick up our album!
Due to legal reasons, we couldn't include our cover of Disco Inferno on the iTunes release. It's still available as a free download here.
