Secret Machines

Secret Machines are an American alternative rock band, originally from Dallas, Texas, United States, before moving to New York City. The original lineup consisted of two brothers, Brandon (vocals, bass guitar and keyboards) and Benjamin Curtis (guitar and backing vocals), and Josh Garza (drums). Benjamin left the band in March 2007 to focus on his work with School of Seven Bells, and was replaced on guitar by Phil Karnats. The re-activated band is a two-piece, with the remaining members being Brandon Curtis and Josh Garza.

Daddy's in the Doldrums - Secret Machines
Posted 9 years ago by coloradojohn:
I can never forget the first time I heard this at a healthy volume... I was sitting at my desk in my penthouse in hip, leafy, eclectic Setagaya-ku, Tokyo, looking at the distant majestic snow-cone of Fuji-san through the dining room windows and at the towers of Shinjuku, Roppongi and MidTown through the sliding glass doors of my bedroom deck, and this came on, and I cranked it, good, and man, we grooved...towards the end, the neighbors let me know they dug it too but wanted me to turn it down. Still love it on every level!

The Secret Machines are one of the best bands to come out of the 2000s, during a time (2004-2006) when many great bamds came onto the scene (Interpol, Doves, The White Stripes, The Killers, Bravery, Kasabian, etc.). They remind me a little of The Doors with a John Bonham beat. Unbelievable live. TSM are sorely missed.

I hope you are sitting down, because I have a mindblowingly awesome idea for a song. It would be about this guy that killed himself. Now right there we already have enough artistic merit to warrant several orgasms among the users on RP, but wait, because it gets better. He kills himself because he's been listening to too much depress-o-rock. Naturally the song would use only the worst production values for that "gritty reality" sound that only True Artists use.
Idiot.

Love this song. Menacing. Understated. Killer bridge. 

I que'd it up in a rental car once, as I drove up to the edge of the South Rim of Grand Canyon at sunset, a million desert sky colors and crazy deepening canyon shadows - it was like being on another planet. I will always have this song and that vista burned together in my mind. Getting the exact image as I listen now.

I can see how some don't like it, but it really works for me.

This sounds like a song that would fit well with a William Shatner spoken word overdub!
