Review

Rolling Stone (6/7/01, p.115) - 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...Not just furious but funky. In a Mr. Roboto gone berserk sorta way....The band grooves as hard as it grinds..."
Spin (7/01, p.127) - 6 out of 10 - "...The post-Ministry screech'n'stutter of this album tastes like Big Blackened chicken....[They] reach for a pounding darkness, organized around their frontman's distorto-howl and choppy riffs..."
CMJ (5/28/01, p.17) - "...The big, bad, louder-than-a-bomb MACHINE is cyberiffic computer-core that takes its sonic cues from early Ministry..."
NME (Magazine) (6/16/01, p.40) - 7 out of 10 - "...socks some flavorful shocks to the nu-metal sytstem..."

Title Note

Static-X: Wayne Static (vocals, guitar, keyboards, programming); Tripp Eisen (guitar); Tony Campos (bass, background vocals); Ken Jay (drums).

Recorded at Studio 508, Los Angeles, California from October 2000-January 2001.

The follow-up to Static-X's 1999 debut WISCONSIN DEATH TRIP finds the hard-hitting quartet continuing down the same industrial-flavored path of jackhammer tempi, leaden guitar crunch and crashing rhythms. Despite the amicable departure of guitarist Koichi Fukuda, former Dope axe- wielder Tripp Eisen does a fine job fitting in alongside founding members Wayne Static, Keny Jay, and Tony Campos. Working on the gloom and doom side of the tracks, Static-X keep things interesting with the kind of controlled chaos that makes for an interesting exercise in manipulating dynamics.

This studio experimentation encompasses everything from an unholy alliance of ambient textures and choppy industrial-strength riffs ("Permanence") to electronic blips and tortuously drawn out sturm and drang that could double as the soundtrack to Armageddon ("A Dios Alma Perdido"). Elsewhere, sputtering electronics and vocalist Static's defiant howl drive the breakneck "This Is Not" while a more sinister aura grips the considerably less frantic "Cold." Not for the faint of heart, MACHINE churns up and spits out any thoughts of Static-X suffering from a sophomore jinx.
