Feed The Machine
Music: N. Da Silva
Lyrics: N. Da Silva/S. Westbrook
This is a compromise
Campaigns made of lies
A system that tries to be fair in “His” eyes
But should we realize
The consequences in disguise
A silent path to our demise
Power and greed, that is the dream
Feed The Machine, and slowly bleed
See them starve, and feel nothing now
See them cry, fear but don’t ask why
Add on, add on more gain
Add on, add on more pain
Add on, add on more fear
Add on, and disappear
Downward we go, never to return
Just like the earth below, and the fuel we burn
Addiction always desires for more
Always more, more, more, more
Fear on the screens, that’s all we see
Consume and breed, that’s all we breathe
Power and greed, that is the dream
Feed The Machine, and slowly bleed
See them starve, and feel nothing now
See them cry, fear but don’t ask why
Add on, add on more gain
Add on, add on more pain
Add on, add on more fear
Add on, and disappear
See them starve, and feel nothing now
See them cry, fear but don’t ask why
See them starve, and feel nothing now
See them cry, fear but don’t ask why
Power and greed, that is the dream
Feed The Machine, and slowly bleed
Add on, add on more gain
Add on, add on more pain
Add on, add on more fear
Add on, and disappear

The first official outing of the "what would be" Steve Rothery Band. Riccardo Romano was missing with his keyboard wizardry and no singer at all (later Martin Jakubsky of Stillmarillion). Marillion's catalogue was represented by excerpts of instrumental sections where Steve had his solo spot. This is a milestone in the forming of a great band that later became the spokesman of early Marillion era and of course of Steve's solo material. If you want to hear how it all started you have to get this Alessandro Carmassi

I made love with my girlfriend so many times on this album. It is incredible. The songs are so beautiful and the rythm so well coordinated for this kind of moment... Anyway, always good to listen to it in the bus too Faugus
The Long Island metal band's third album etches arena-sized hooks into their jagged compositions, deftly balancing experimental and poppy inclinations. Bandcamp Album of the Day May 12, 2022

I don't know why, but this album sounds like the System Of A Down of Progressive Metal to me (in a good way). Something different, diverse, with highly melodic parts and awesome vocals. Love this. UbuntuStudioUser
