Elegant Machinery

Postby Machman » Tue Nov 09, 2004 11:51 am

Can anyone tell me anything about this band. I am under the impression they were a Swedish Synth Pop band that were fairly good.

Does anyone have any info, reviews, advice on whether I should pick up some of their stuff? Who could you compare them to?

Thanks

Ollie Stench: There definitely is a synthpop band called Elegant Machinery. I don't think I've ever actually heard any of their material, so I can't comment on it.

Several of their CDs are available from <a href="http://www.adifferentdrum.com/catalog.

I have a song called Watching You (95er Remix). They sound very much like early Depeche Mode.

I'm a an Elegant Machinery fan, they really do have some classic songs ie: "Blind Man Dreams" and "Portrait Without Life".

Lead singer Robert Enforsen did a cover of the Farm's "All Together Now" under the guise of Enforce.

I have everything from Elegant Machinery and they are an excellent band. They started off being a Depeche Mode clone and even appeared on a Swedish DM tribute CD called "Sometimes I Wish I Was Famous". Their first 2 albums were dark and depressing, stuf
