The Machine
Last updated: 3 hours ago
Doused in space, soaked in riffs. THE MACHINE is the power trio of guitarist/vocalist David Eering, bassist Chris Both and drummer Klaas Dijkstra. Since forming in the late aughts, the genre-bending Dutch band has left its mark on the international underground via 7 full-lengths, 1 split album and countless shows throughout Europe. Rooted in the raw energy of stoner rock, they have been redefining their craft by balancing the band’s affection for loud riffs with an adventurous spirit that has seen them venture into the realms of heavy psych, ‘90s alt-rock, prog, doom, space and beyond.
THE MACHINE once spearheaded the 2nd wave of the European heavy psych scene while still in their early 20s, but life flows as it goes and while they never truly paused, THE MACHINE has been operating at a more moderate level for the past years. Ready to pick things up where they left off, a revamped lineup has been working on new material that sees the band embrace their older output and indulge in modern progress at the same time. With Eering still at the helm as the driving force since day one, the trio’s sonic core identity has not changed. The band is currently preparing the release of their 8th full length in 2026, recorded in the tail end of 2025 at Eering’s recently built Evolver Studio. THE MACHINE took their time to mature, only to return stronger and more potent than ever before. Onward and upward!
