The band's style is a deft combination of raw Indie Rock with a Jazz-like boundlessness,
which has led to comparisons ranging from The Talking Heads to Television to Ween.
-- Mike Breen in the Cincinnati City Beat

Their sound is hip and cool. You can hear the influences of many great artists in their work.
New Machines has got a clean and groovy sound worth a trip to Toledo.
-- Rose Massaro in the The Daily Record Wooster, OH

The New Machines aren't driven by cogs or sprockets, but by the energy of four Toledo youths.
-- Steve Howell in the Toledo City Paper Toledo, OH

Although this album is already more than 2 years “old”, we thought that we needed to present it to our public.
The American band New Machines showed on this 26 minute long CD what it means not to be a genre slave.
On the other side, a terrible mixture of different things has been avoided.
Here the sound is based on guitar alternative rock from the first half of the ‘80’s mixed with a calm atmosphere which dominates the album.
8 songs were recorded in a home studio on only 4 channels, so considering all of that – the sound and the production are great!
-- Album review in ROCK EXPRESS Yugoslavia 2002
