CHICAGO, IL (DLSP) - The wait is nearly over! Chicago's Electro-Metal MARAZENE MACHINE will release, "WELCOME TO YOUR HOLIDAY", as a digital single on June 21, 2011. An audio sample has been posted on the bands official Youtube channel
www.youtube.com/user/marazenemachine and/or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eSYC4P5aH4 and the cover art can be viewed below.
Described as "The soundtrack to your RAWR" - "WELCOME TO YOUR HOLIDAY" comes off of the band's forthcoming - as yet untitled - sophomore effort and provides a second preview as to how thebands new album and continually developing sound is shaping up.
"It's got a dirty, dark rock vibe to it with these completely crazy lyrics that narrate a key
moment in our new album.." multi-instrumentalist and vocalist DieTrich Thrall commented. "It'sshort and sweet. Skumf***erz times 100.."
"Woke up in a graveyard.." multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Nikk Skum added playfully.
The band most recently released a cover of MOTLEY CRUE's "LIVE WIRE" which was promptly hailed by rock legends Nikki Sixx and Tommy Lee as both "Killer" and a "Fucking wicked version!"respectively.
An official release date to 2007's critically regarded 'MachiNation' album is expected shortly.
Over the years the independent MARAZENE MACHINE have racked up several major and impressive accomplishments. The band was quick to land three instrumental tracks on THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS and subsequent THE MATRIX RELOADED box set out of the gate then followed that up with multiple self-managed National tours with the likes of MUSHROOMHEAD, THE HUMAN ABSTRACT, PSYCLON NINE, WEDNESDAY 13, and DEADSTAR ASSEMBLY 100% DIY. MARAZENE MACHINE also took the lead in establishing themselves as "virtual" performers in SECOND LIFE, a social interactive virtual world. .
More recently the band survived the recent passing of original drummer and co-founder Kristopher "Kristov" Kemp to cancer which threatened to end their run outright. MARAZENE MACHINE abruptly went silent only to emerge after a self-imposed mourning period with an archive of 40+ songs which are on deck to be released in the coming months as digital singles and future albums.
With little industry support other than a rabid cult fan base "defying the odds" has become a calling card for one of the hardest working underground bands today.
And with a new album in the works set for Fall 2011 release, industry experts would do well to keep an eye on MARAZENE MACHINE as nabbing a quick spotlight no longer seems to be a fluke - it's fast becoming a time-honored tradition.
