THE MACHINE KNOWS - Killer

Killer is the debut single by newly started Danish power-trio THE MACHINE KNOWS. The song is built on the rocking foundation of a cheeky shuffle beat, pounding bass, ferocious guitars and a grim tale of being betrayed by the ones closest to you. It’s Modern Rock with one foot steeped in tradition, the other on the speeder, the eyes narrowed in on the horizon, and a heart reckless in honesty. It is a manifestation of the group members deep love to the rock-genre and it shamelessly carries its inspirations on its sleeves. It tips its big hat to both the British and American mastodonts of the genre, while their wise teachings are filtered through the sense of lived life.

“It all began with one single note in the rehearsal space. Sometimes that’s all it takes. Suddenly you hear something new in the old familiar, and the song quickly grew to become somewhat of a monster with its own intentions. Originally the lyrics where inspired by a YouTube-series on the lives of Roman emperors - what a handful those guys were! - but the personal crept in and transformed the song to something more akin to the personality of the band,” says Kristoffer Veirum (vocals/guitar).

In one word : Excellent !!!
