The Dandy Warhols have been a band for 18 yrs.
This Machine is
the Dandy's 8th official studio album and was recorded over the course
of 2011 at The Dandy Warhols rock clubhouse/ entertainment
megaplex/studio The Odditorium. The band recorded the album with their
longtime engineer - producer Jeremy Sherrer. Taylor-Taylor describes
this record as "stripped down, woody and extremely guitar centric."
The
album was mixed Tchad Blake who also mixed The Dandy Warhols Odditorium
or Warlords of Mars and Come Down. Tchad is well known for his recent
work with The Black Keys, Blitzen Trapper and Pearl Jam. The album
cover for This Machine was painted by local Portland, Oregon painter
Hickory Mertsching.
Famed Science Fiction writer Richard Morgan penned the band’s official Bio for This Machine. It’s 4 short stories that do a much better job entertaining than this bullet point list. You can download the bio here.
Stand
out track, Autumn Carnival was co authored by Courtney Taylor Taylor
and David J of Love and Rockets. About the album, Courtney says, "We've
been told that its our gothiest. I thought it was our grungiest so I'm
really hoping its a hit with goths who are...um, really outdoorsy?"
And
do check out their various incarnations and side projects. Blue grass
blues to Berlin '77. Some pretty deep and interesting music. And
stories: Pete International Airport, Immigrant Union, Brush Prairie,
One Model Nation.
