REVIEW: Supervillain - Earthquake Machine Self-financed, 2005
7/10
Supervillain - Earthquake Machine - cover art Supervillain is a band coming from Whitestone, New York and "Earthquake Machine" is their second self-financed effort. It has been quite some time since the CD is out for sale and the guys are working on new stuff right at the moment. But before the new CD hits the shelves let's take a look at the 2005 release. First thing you'll notice while listening to this 10 track album is the above average playing skills of the band. With the help of the raw production style, "Earthquake Machine" sounds like a well recorded live CD and it really makes you feel the energy of the band's performance. That is something you'll be looking for when you listen to a no frills hard rock album like this one. They know how to write and deliver well-crafted, straight in your face tunes. The influences of 70s rock with some psychedelic elements, bluesy riffs, stoner rock attitude of the modern times and classic heavy metal touches are combined by this five piece band to generate a quality slice of hard rock music. The only low point of the "Earthquake Machine" album is that it doesn't sound very original but if you think in some genres originality isn't the main subject than you'd better give a chance to these Supervillains.
