The Tokyo Rock Machine destroys then creates. With little respect for the rules of hard rock angular guitar lines collide with primeval beats and leave the listener exhausted - reeling from a sonic one-two of punk attitude and anthemic, raging choruses. Something twisted and dirty, something cathartic and beautiful. Gritty tales set fifteen minutes into the future drawn from personal experiences of living and struggling for survival on the mean streets of the London underbelly.
Based in London, Tokyo Rock Machine features two New Zealanders - Kevi Metal (vocals/bass) and Waka (drums) and Londoner Sam Halen (guitar). Kevi and Waka met in the early hours of a Munich nightclub, introduced by a mutual friend. Together they jammed through the bitter London winter of 2014 and slowly sharpened a set of rough, angry punk songs into things of shiny rock and roll beauty. Recording sessions with legendary engineer Paul Matthews of I Am Giant followed. Now joined by Sam on guitar, Tokyo Rock Machine are roaring out of West London slaying audiences with their live show and unique take on Rock.
Band Members:
Kevi Metal (vocals, bass)
