Dutch stoner rock legends THE MACHINE release new single "Swallow the Sun"!

Dutch heavy psych and stoner rock spearhead THE MACHINE presents the second single and video taken from their anticipated new full-length "Another Sun", to be issued on October 2nd via Blues Funeral Recordings and Awe Records, in cooperation with Stickman Records. 

Recorded in the fall of 2025 at Evolver Studio, frontman David Eering's newly built recording facility in Dordrecht, their upcoming eight album Another Sun captures what is arguably the strongest incarnation of THE MACHINE to date. Intricate in groove and rich in dynamics, it digs deeper into classic heavy-toned songcraft while leaving ample room for the free-flowing jams that have always been central to the Dutch trio's identity. Rather than reinventing themselves, THE MACHINE sharpen their unmistakable sonic fingerprint and deliver a powerful, sun-baked and definitely face-melting 45-minute masterpiece, as shown with their latest single and video Drop/See. 

For the better part of two decades, THE MACHINE have carved out a reputation as one of the most genre-defying acts to emerge from the European underground. Doused in space and soaked in riffs, the power trio of David Eering (guitar/vocals), Chris Both (bass) and Klaas Dijkstra (drums) has continually redefined its sound, balancing a deep-rooted love for stoner rock with excursions into heavy psych, progressive rock, doom, '90s alternative and expansive space rock. As one of the frontrunners of Europe's second wave of stoner and heavy psych, the band established an early landmark with the now cult-classic Solar Corona before continuing to evolve with every release that followed.

Already announced with a surprise full-album performance at this year's Roadburn Festival, Another Sun signals the beginning of a new chapter for THE MACHINE. After nearly two decades as one of Europe's most consistently adventurous heavy rock bands, the trio now steps onto a broader international stage, reaffirming their place alongside legendary Dutch acts like 35007, Beaver and 7Zuma7, while finally bringing their expansive blend of stoner rock, heavy psych and space-driven grooves to a much wider audience.
