We are excited to announce that we’ve signed French cult heavy-hitters LOVE SEX MACHINE as they’re gearing up to record their third
muchly anticipated album, due for a 2024 release. In the meantime, we are re-issuing their classic sophomore album Asexual Anger – a collection of massive rifs delivered with so much raw ferocity that Metal Sucks called it the 'heaviest thing in metal'. Asexual Anger is simply a rare beast of a record, and one which is very close to our flth-loving Pelagic hearts.
Merging contemporary post metal with the intricate grooves of Meshuggah and Intronaut and a healthy dose of flthy Southern sludge in the vein of Eye Hate God or Crowbar, LOVE SEX MACHINE crafted an idiosyncratic sound of their own over 10 years ago already. Throughout these eight tracks LOVE SEX MACHINE show tremendous dedication to their rif craft, reducing the guitar work to its absolute gut-wrenching essence. Slow but menacing, the subdued anger and restraint are tangible throughout the album, never losing tension or intensity. They thrive of of pounding the crash ride relentlessly while playing around with nifty syncopated kick drum accentuation to create the heaviest grooves ever. They're churning out face-melting rifs that will make the corners of your mouth drop as your face takes on a nasty smirk. They give you sore neck muscles and if that sounds like a stupid cliché, just listen to Asexual Anger from the beginning to the end and see how you feel when you're done.
