The Swedish metal act MACHINAE SUPREMACY have already earned their place in history by being one of the first bands to successfully embrace and utilize the internet and filesharing to gain a huge fanbase before ever having signed a record deal, received airplay or any form of sponsored promotion.
They've reached out to all corners of the world, from Israel and China to the USA and Australia, and today this website has over 100 000 song downloads every month (that's roughly 650 gigabytes of music being downloaded monthly). Their unique blend of metal, soundtrack and video game music has earned them even more praise and elevation in the underground music scene, and today MACHINAE SUPREMACY receives fanmails from all over the planet on a daily basis.
In late 2005 to early 2006 MACHINAE SUPREMACY was contacted by a number of various record labels, one of which almost convinced the band to sign, but they chose to remain independent because only one of the labels could offer any kind of real distribution, and in the end even that label was turned down due to its poor communication with the band.
MACHINAE SUPREMACY decided to go full DIY and press, sell and distribute the album themselves. The Underground Edition of REDEEMER was released at the opening of the MACHINAE SUPREMACY webshop (a.k.a The MACHINAESHOP) on March 28th 2006, and the band broke even on the album production costs in only a few hours.
In May 2006 MACHINAE SUPREMACY were contacted by Spinefarm Records, inquiring as to whether they were interested in signing a record deal with them. The Spinefarmers flew over to see the band play live in Stockholm on August 19th, and shortly thereafter a record deal was compiled and presented to the band.
The band's Spinefarm debut, a remixed version of their indie album "Redeemer" was released during Fall 2006 worldwide.
After Redeemer’s release the band played several shows in Finland and Sweden performing on the same stage with Pain and Clawfinger. The band was also invited as special guests to play live in PLAY-Video game symphony in Stockholm and Oslo.
On the autumn of 2007 it was again time for new recordings. The band worked very independently with the material. Only the final touch, mixing, was done by old friend, Mr Fredrik Nordström in Studio Fredman and Mr Peter In de Betou at Tailor Maid mastering.
The new material… Well, you’ll definitely recognize the band. The album needs to be listened a few times before you’ll really find those killer tracks from it, but it will be definitely worth the effort!!!
