Machinae Gaming!

So our sources have found out that the song 'Nova Prospekt' was based on the Valve game Half Life. When asked about playing the game Rob told us that he does but "Not recently". Just a little fact for you :)

New album?

Many of you have wondered if there is a new Machinae Supremacy album on the way. I am pleased to inform you all that yes there is a new album on the horizon! 

Rob told us here at Machinae Manchester that the album will be out  soon and that the release is "set for October."

Following Rob's posts on Twitter we know that the band have already starting working on what will be yet another fantastic album. Rob told his followers that "Let May 17th be known as the day we made something like half our next album". 

Can't wait? Neither can we. Bring on October!

Interview with Robert Stjärnström.

So here at Machinae Manchester we got the chance to ask lead vocalist Robert Stjärnström some vital questions to help us understand more about the band. We have now decided to share this with all of you. The fans. Enjoy.

Q:  So Rob how did you come up with the name Machinae Supremacy?
A: It's a cyberpunk influenced concept. Machines already outnumber us. How long until they outsmart us? :)

Q: What is your favourite song that you've done?
A: It varies from day to day, but today.... Force Feedback.

Q: Where do you get your inspiration from?
A: TV, movies, music, video games. Inspiration is everywhere, all the time.

Q: How easy is it for you to write lyrics?

A: Sometimes very, but most of the time I spend a lot of time and effort on it.

Q: My favourite song is 'The Greatest Show on Earth' could you explain to me what the song is about, 

     how you came up with it? 

A: It's about our generation, which I call Generation Online. We are constantly connected, and we waste 

    time like we know nothing else, yet still we wouldn't want it any other way. The greatest show on  

    earth is right before our eyes. 

Q: What is the best thing about being in Machinae?

A: Making and playing the songs we do. And meeting and interacting with all the awesome people who 

     listen to our music. 

Q: Sum up one of your live shows in one word?

A: Blast

Q: What's it like touring all around the world?

A: It's kinda like Groundhog Day (with Bill Murray). Pretty awesome but weird. You get to see a lot of 

     places and meet a lot of people, but you never stay anywhere for long, so every day it all starts over 

    (and most days are the same with regards to playing, crew, schedule, etc. 

Q: If you wren't in Machinae what would you be doing?

A: Probably I'd do something involving writing or graphics. Or I'd be aiming for film music production.

Q:  Do you have anything you'd like to say to your fans?

A: Stay win & awesome! Kill those fuckers on Wall street ;)

Q: Thank you so much, we really appreciate it.  

A: No problem! Rock on! R.

So there you go guys, an interview with Robert Stjärnström. We'll make sure to post more stuff for you fans soon! Keep rocking!!
