A woman ploughing the Soundgarden? Well, a little bit. Tori Amos forges metal? Yes and no. Alanis Morissette grew eggs? It's not quite true either. There's pressure behind that: "After "Torque" (2012) and " War On The Inside" (2009), "Machine" is the third album of the Swiss alternative metal band 69 CHAMBERS around the charismatic frontwoman Nina Vetterli-Treml, who was born in South Korea and grew up in Singapore. Even if the line-up hasn't changed compared to the action album with Nina on bass, Tommy Vetterli on guitar and drummer Diego Rapacchietti: "Machine" is the most personal album of the internationally successful band - but without getting a little softer. The Stim me still oscillates between fragility and anger, the guitar riffs come hard, heavy and precise and rub against the drum-chain shirt. Besides the catchy "Machine" and the epic "Who Am I", 69 CHAMBERS present with "M?tamorphose" also pays an ode to their French-speaking fans.
