Synopsis

Album Description
Keyboard virtuoso and producer extraordinaire Erik Norlander proudly announces the release of his 2003 rock opera, Music Machine, a double CD concept album about the dramatic rise and fall of a genetically engineered rock star. With a full compliment of world-class musicians including Buck Dharma (Blue Oyster Cult), Vinny Appice (Black Sabbath, Dio), Gregg Bissonette (ELO, David Lee Roth, Joe Satriani, etc.), Virgil Donati (Steve Vai, Planet X, Ring of Fire), Mark Boals (Yngwie, Ring of Fire), Tony Franklin (The Firm, Blue Murder, Whitesnake), Kelly Keeling (MSG, Blue Murder, Heaven and Earth) and many others, Erik's Music Machine project is epic both in scope and sound. Limited edition set packaged in a deluxe gatefold digipak. Think Tank Media.

CD Reviews

For all Ayreon lovers
Dmitry Chernov | St. Petersburg, Russia Russia | 10/19/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"As a big fan of Lucassen's Ayreon & Star One bands, I was looking for solo albums of Damian Wilson, Eric Norlander and some others who participated in all Arien's albums. Eric Norlander is the only one I really liked very much. The tunes of Music Machine sometimes very similar to Ayreon's content (some Star One melodies present as well). Eric's keyboards are quite recognizable, both discs are well made and the whole compilation plays like one great song. Awesome album! It becomes better each time you listen to it. However don't expect complex vocal parties like Ayreon has. There are four singers, but they differ not much from each other.Anyway, Music Machine is an A-class "must-have" album for all Ayreon fans and others who just like good music. I'll definitely look forward to other Eric's releases after this one."
