| Band biography |
The first demo recording of Machine Men was made few months later. The recording session took place in Watercastle studio in Jyväskylä at 29th of May 1999.
During the summer 1999 Machine Men played few highly energetic gigs.
In the Fall 1999 "Through My Tomb" from the first demo recording was chosen to Jyrki Hit Challenge semifinals as one of the 24 songs that were chosen from the 500 songs that had been submitted to the contest.
The second demo session took place in Watercastle studios at 7th and 9th of December 1999. This time the demo got a honorable mention "Demosedän Merkki" in finnish music magazine Soundi.
Parviainen, Parantainen and Vehniäinen were forced to start their compulsory military service in Finnish army in the Winter 2000. That meant six months break for Machine Men. Machine Men spent the Summer 2000 doing gigs and songwriting.
In the Summer 2001 Machine Men took part in Big Boom -band competition. The success in Big Boom gave Machine Men an opportunity to have their song "Failed Trick" published in a compilation CD. In the Autumn 2001 Machine Men headed to studio and recorded two amazing songs: "Behind The Wall of Scene" and "Eye of the Truth". In March 2002 this two-song CD was reviewed as "the Demo of the Month" by Finnish music magazine Soundi.
In December 2001 Machine Men signed a record deal with Finnish label Dynamic arts Records. Straight after the ink was dry the band went to studio to record a mini CD. That CD contains five songs: "Men Inside the Machine", "Eye of the Truth", "The Slave Trade", "Enjoy Insanity" and a cover song. Listen to the samples!
The mini CD is now ready and it will be released in June 2002. 12.5.2002 Machine Men
Get ready for the new experiment in Heavy Metal!
In early April 2005 the band signed a new contract with Century Media.
