Stone Machine Electric Announce The Amazing Terror EP Release and Album Recording

Thursday, November 12th, 2015

Reliably weird and heavy in kind, Stone Machine Electric will be releasing a new EP later this month called The Amazing Terror. As I understand the info below, the tracks on the new EP were recorded at the same time as late-2014’s Garage Tape (review here), but they also serve as the foundations for what the Texas-based two-piece of guitarist William […]

Duuude, Tapes! Stone Machine Electric, Garage Tape

Thursday, December 4th, 2014

Well, Texas duo Stone Machine Electric didn’t call it Garage Tape because they broke the bank and spent half a million dollars recording it, but don’t be put off. While the title speaks to the DIY nature of its origins, Garage Tape actually sounds clear and warm enough to get its message across. Guitarist William […]

Stone Machine Electric Announce Garage Tape Remix

Tuesday, November 11th, 2014

Arlington, Texas, two-piece Stone Machine Electric are moving ever closer to the heart of the jam. They’ve set a Dec. 9 release date for the limited cassette issue of Garage Tape, the title of which seems to tell a lot of the story. It’s Stone Machine Electric — the once again and seemingly permanently sans-bass duo of guitarist/vocalist William “Dub” […]

Stone Machine Electric Announce Garage Tape

I like this idea. Texas duo Stone Machine Electric have shown plenty of adventurous spirit over the last couple years, be it in their Kent Stump-recorded 2013 self-titled (review here), or bringing in a Warr guitarist (only to shortly dismiss him), or their prior 2010 live demo, Awash in Feedback (review here), so it seems to me they’ll be right […]

Now a trio with bassist Mark Cook on board, Arlington-based heavy fuzz rockers Stone Machine Electric nonetheless recorded their self-titled, self-released debut as the core duo of Mark Kitchens and William “Dub” Irvin. The album (review here) was recorded by Kent Stump of Dallas heavyweights Wo Fat, and shares some of that band’s tonal thickness […]

Stone Machine Electric, Stone Machine Electric: Either Way, You Bleed

Tuesday, January 1st, 2013

Their prior 2010 live demo, Awash in Feedback, served notice of their arrival, and with a thickly-fuzzed 39-minute full-length, Arlington, Texas, duo Stone Machine Electric make their self-titled debut. Immediately notable is the production job of Wo Fat guitarist/vocalist Kent Stump, who brings to these songs a similar sense of warmth captured on his band’s […]

Monday, November 19th, 2012

Dub and Kitchens of Texas-based outfit Stone Machine Electric return. The pair recorded their self-titled debut full-length with Wo Fat‘s Kent Stump and will release the album on Jan. 11, 2013. Stone Machine Electric‘s Awash in Feedback demo (review here) gave a good sense of the band’s presence in a live setting, so it should […]

Stone Machine Electric Remind Us all What Demos are for on Awash in Feedback

They’re about as rudimentary as you get, and much of what you need to know about Arlington, Texas, doom duo (I keep trying to coin the term “doomuo,” but it doesn’t seem to be catching on, fun as it is to say out loud) Stone Machine Electric you can see on the package of their […]
