Secret Machines Out 10/14

The Secret Machines to release self titled album October 14

The Secret Machines

The Secret Machines are set to release their forthcoming third album on October 14. The record, simply entitled Secret Machines, is the follow up to 2006’s critically-acclaimed Ten Silver Drops, and the first since the band’s departure from Reprise Records. Secret Machines will be the first offering from the band’s own, newly-formed label TSM Recordings, which is distributed through World’s Fair Label Group.

Secret Machines, recorded in the band’s adopted home of New York City and produced by the band and Brandon Mason is a sonic tour de force, full of expansive instrumental swells and psychedelic sounds. From the driving beat of opener and first single “Atomic Heels” to the steady drone of “The Fire Is Waiting,” Secret Machines sees the band mapping out new musical terrain while retaining the elements that have made them favorites amongst music fans since the release of their first album, Now Here Is Nowhere, in 2004. Indeed, it is The Secret Machines’ patented space-bound sound that helped to put Brooklyn on the map as a psych-rock hotbed, resulting in a scene that has swelled in numbers over the last several years. The band’s newest offering expands upon the trajectory they initiated five years ago. And oh, what a long, strange trip it has been…

Track Listing:

1. Atomic Heels
2. Last Believer, Drop Dead
3. Have I Run Out
4. Underneath The Concrete
5. Now You’re Gone
6. The Walls are Starting to Crack
7. I Never Thought to Ask
8. The Fire Is Waiting

The Secret Machines consists of founding members Brandon Curtis, Josh Garza and new addition in longtime friend Phil Karnats, who replaced Brandon’s brother, guitarist and vocalist Benjamin Curtis who left the group to focus his full attention on his own project, School of Seven Bells. They are currently out on the road playing select dates through the summer including a stop at the All Points West Festival in New Jersey on August 10.
