MALICE MACHINE - Unleashed A New Album And A Video

The USA based industrial band Malice Machine unleashed its highly-anticipated new full-length album, Chemical Violence, on 16 July. The video for the track "Restrict" was released six days earlier.

The lyrics on Chemical Violence express some of the darker sides of our nature. Cold landscapes combined with twisted and tortured concepts of what reality is or what the human experience can be for some of us. It's not always a pleasant journey. One thing is certain. This sick machine will grind down all of us eventually.

All songs are written by Syn and Ammo and recorded and mastered by Syn at Prototype Studio.  "Restrict" and "Dead Circuit" were co-produced and mixed by John Bechdel from Ministry.

About the album: "Chemical Violence started as a continuation of our first album, Digital Scars, but quickly evolved into a more electronic-driven, rhythmic Industrial project with the guitar being a lesser element. There are several dance-heavy tracks but we also return to brooding flavours to satisfy our darker nature. Chemical Violence covers a lot of industrial territories. We don't want to be pigeonholed into one sub-genre so all the songs have their own flavour. Retro and post style, Electronic, driven guitar, grinding Noisecore and Aggrotech elements, Synth bass, Drum-dominant." - Ammo (Malice Machine)

Originally hailing from NYC, Malice Machine is a collaboration of two dark souls, Syn and Ammo. Their sound emanates in a cybernetic assembly of industrial synths, seething noise, methodical drums, razored guitar, and edge-riding vocals. Watch "Restrict" in the player below. Link
