Free Music Notes for MACHINA/The Machines of God

Free Music Review: Bloated
Hit: 3 Stars

This would be a fairly decent album if you knocked about six songs off of it. But that's not how things worked out when MACHINA was created. The heavy rock songs ('The Everlasting Gaze', "Heavy Metal Machine", "The Imploding Voice") are good, but the more melodic bits seem far too overproduced and full of a marshmellow-like substance.

I give the album three stars because, if you just skip some of the less impressive tracks, it's actually not a bad listen.

MACHINA/The Machines of God Poster

Japanese version of 2000 release & follow up to 'Adore' Produced by Billy Corgan and Flood, the same team that produced 'Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness'. Includes the bonus track 'Speed Kills'. 2000 release. Standard jewel case.
With the doubters hovering round his band following the rock-is-dead pronouncement that preceded the flawed electronic dabblings of Adore, Machina finds Billy Corgan desperate to prove everyone, not least himself, wrong. On their fifth album, the Pumpkins attempt to reclaim the higher ground they dominated with the peerless Siamese Dream and the sprawling 28-track opus Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. As a result, they hit the ground running on Machina, exploding into life with "The Everlasting Gaze" and its firestorm of guitars and heavy metaphysical thunder. There are some quintessential Pumpkins moments here, notably "Stand Inside Your Love," which soars away on a spiraling guitar solo, and "Try, Try, Try," which taps into Corgan's ever-present melancholy. At 73 minutes long, Machina overstays its welcome, beginning to flag, ironically, at the self-aggrandizing "Heavy Metal Machine." No matter--the Pumpkins have made their point with brutal grace. --Mike Pattenden
