Kevin Martin's seventh album as the Bug marks a return to his roots, blending corrosive industrial ragga with all manner of swirling digital gunk, creating a unique sound experience.
Machine is Martin's first non-collaborative instrumental outing, designed as 'floor weapons' for his 10-bassbin Pressure parties, highlighting the oppressive volume and intensity he aims for.
The project exemplifies an extreme sound aesthetic similar to that of legendary albums like Napalm Death's and Merzbow's, reflecting an arms race of musical intensity with its kaiju-sized basslines.
With traditionally unsafe sound levels, the album moves through a mix of hypnotic yet malevolent tones, creating an unshakeable atmosphere that challenges both the listener's stamina and sensibilities.
