"The band absolutely slams!" says Kansas City writer Wess Hudelson. 

"Simpler Machine ripped my fucking head off.  Once the curtain went up my eyes were wide and my undies were soiled.  From start to finish these five guys threw down!  They threw themselves at the walls, at each other, and at the crowd of mostly scantily clad women!" Kev-Mo, Rock City News, Los Angeles, Ca. 

"CD opens up with Pretty Good Looking, a song that is a great representation of the rest of the material contained on this collection. This CD is a collection of songs that won't sound like anything else in your collection, which is likely a good thing. Unlike anything you've heard before, Simpler Machine combine hard rock, punk, alternative, with very complex drum patterns and a sense of humor that could result in serious injury. The net result, a catchy, crazy, intense, and very well recorded effort. Highlights include the aforementioned Pretty Good Looking, Monkey Trap, Let's F*ck In The Van, and Ratfuck, but honestly this CD is a rare find in that it contains very well written, played, and recorded songs from start to finish. A must buy!"  Barton Turner, Oklahoma City, OK.

Singer Jon Nicholson's Iggy Pop/Bowie/R. Plant stage presence and tweaking vocals constantly keep audiences off balance and entertained.  Visionary guitarist, Dave Isaacs melodic and constantly odd guitar "interpretations" add to the enormous mass of sound established by fellow guitarist Joey Sanchez, whose metal marshall riffs fuel the engine. Bass player Anoush, who's stage presence equals being in the room with the Undertaker, handles business seamlessly...he isn't scared to play guitar either.;) and he's funny!  Drummer J. Brunk, rounds out the five-some with steady blasting barrages and plans on bringing fliggidas back to the forefront of American rock.  The band will take you on an Acid trip of sorts.  Catch the next show!!
