Flooding out of Glasgow in 2022, Water Machine quickly gained a reputation for their weird and
wonky art-punk, winning hearts with sing-along songs about dogs, struggling artists and the housing
crisis. The world of Water Machine is a swirling eddy of melodic bass lines and volatile guitar, driving
rhythms thumped out on a sparse kit with cowbell flourishes, all the while narrated by sardonic
social commentary and silly stories. A band with pop sensibilities and indignant punk urgency, these
oddballs dart from sweet C86 to spiky post-punk, often within a single song.
