Myspace Music Code Generator




'Yes turn off your god damn humming hum drum of a PC/MAC and skidle your little ass to one fat weekend of high oxide, sonic fuelled entertainment to blow your ears and make you dance until you blister your feet!! Have you heard TMIO yet!! They're of the hottest properties on the stoke music scene right now. Lets face it the music in stoke is exploding every man,his dog, pet gold fish, and cousine twice removed who got buried under the patio in a random cement accident has formed an element of pure unadulterated hardcore working persons (to be Politically Correct) music.' SEDATIVES AND COLD CHAMPAGNE.

'A surging force of energy thru a hauntingly virbant soundscape of synths...This is no mere dance music with guitars...This is no hybrid - This IS TMIO!' -Stephan Bishop - ledgend.

"Musical inspirations from bands like "Placebo" and "Oasis" can be found in the anthem like songs that mirror the Mondaying "Living for the weekend" view of the crowd that support TMIO. "Sing songs about going nowhere" and similar lyrics echo throughout each song, giving the crowd a pathway into the minds of the band, this combined with punchy drum beats like that of Phil Jordan from "The Music" is what gives the band it's musical edge." "Taken From Rent-A-Crowd gig review 2007"

This Machine Is Off are a 4 piece alternative band from stoke/cheshire area. spanning from many influences, going out with a single aim. To make people dance.
