Green Machine

by Eduardo RivadaviaA Japanese doom/stoner rock band whose name derives from a classic song by genre pioneers Kyuss, Green Machine recorded two albums -- 1998's D.A.M.N. and 1999's Earth Beater -- before grinding to a halt due to inter-band squabbles and general consumer indifference. But, after replacing original bassist Daisaku with Takumi, vocalist/guitarist Monzawa and drummer Datsu returned for a third and final album, 2004's The Archives of Rotten Blues, following it with a DVD entitled Wizard's Convention the following year.
