All these new Finnish
newcomers are keeping a high standard, Machine Men being a impressive
band
that has walked the ladder from the demostage, via competitions to
compilations, and then finally having
the patience to get signed and here
then releasing their debut self-titled EP.
Their music is very 80's metal
influenced, but with a modern soundpicture, giving certain hints of the
solo
works of a certain Bruce Dickinson, in the "Chemical Wedding" and
"Accident of Birth" era. The dynamic
of Machine Men is probably the
strongest point of the band, as they have been writing good songs, and
then
performing them tightly together with a intense production, making the
EP very enjoyable.
It will be exciting to see if this band will be able to
follow-up this EP with a real album, that is a challenge for
many bands, but
I am excited to hear more!
Their ending version of Maiden's "Aces High"
is also truly enjoyable. Not a easy song to cover, but Machine
Men do it
well!
Watch out for these Finns in the
future.
