Machinery was formed in late 2001 by guitarist/singer Michel Isberg and drummer Johan Westman. Their first demo 'A PART OF STEEL IN AN ENDLESS MACHINE' was released in October 2002 and at this point the music was far more heavy metal-oriented than it is today.
Through time the band grew character and in October 2004 the release of 'THE BEGINNING' saw the light of day! An eight-track demo which by now can characterize how the band crafted their sound. A hybrid between Death, black, thrash and heavy-metal; Imagine combining a classic thrashband with a dose of heavy metal, stirred with some progressive elements and flavoured with a touch of Norwegian black metal... a formula which was further expanded on the 2005 demo 'RISING'.
In May 2006 Machinery participated on the 'Thrashing The Masses' compilation released by Last Entertainment. With the success of the Thrashing The Masses, Machinery started to prepare for their debut full-length album, and in August 2006 'DEGENERATION' was recorded with producer Sverker Widgren in Necromorbus studio.(Watain, In battle, Mörk gryning, Bloodshed).
In October 2006 'DEGENERATION' was released through Last Entertainment. Altough shortly after, guitarist Markus Isberg left the band and was replaced by Mano Lewys. The spring of 2007 was spent on writing material for the upcoming album which was recorded in June at Black Lounge Studio together with Jonas Kjellgren (Scar Symmetry, Centinex).

THE RETURN OF THE BAT
Specimen will bring their special brand of glam mayhem, The Batcave to London again.
After last year’s wildly-successful 25th anniversary Batcave event, The Batcave returns to its original spawning ground of London’s West End on Sunday July 19 for another night of blasphemy, lechery and blood.
Specimen (Fresh from a fantastic show at Leipzig’s Waves Gotik festival), the original Batcave instigators will headline the lurid frolics at the Embassy Club, (29 Old Burlington St, London W1S3AP) Also on the bill are original Batcavers Sexbeat, with DJs Hamish and Cavey Nick, cavorting from decks to decadence with the usual brutal, trouser-dropping surprises & suitably confronting & barbaric entertainment.
The 2009 Batcave will feature installations from exciting new artists of the ‘Dark London Underground’ and visuals from the upcoming ‘Welcome To The Batcave’ book, along with this year’s bitcrushed message from the creature in the Batcave Pram. All set in a spooky Bladerunner environment!
So dress to kill … prepare for a thrill & Expect the unexpected!
The Batcave will be open from 10pm till 3am. Tickets £15 available from www.ticketweb.co.uk and Resurrection Records.
