Rusty Machines Are Not Underrated

Rusty Machines has been called underrated by FHM and, more recently, The Flying Lugaw says that they might become “one of the biggest alternative rock bands in the next decade.”

Well, I beg to differ.

The most that Rusty Machines is is decent. Everything about the band is unremarkable. So-so lyrics, so-so riffs, so-so songwriting, so-so everything. They kind of remind me of Circa Waves, that British indie starter pack band that everyone knows but can’t think of a song by them other than “T-Shirt Weather.” Sure, there are good parts here and there on their EP City Lights, but these tiny good parts are snuffed out by these bigger, more unmemorable parts. It’s like they came up with interesting riffs and melodies and then hurriedly tacked on a lot of uninteresting parts just so they could call it a song. 

Some of their lyrics are painfully generic and cheesy too - like the poetry of a high schooler suffering from puppy love. Here are some examples:

From “Forget You”:

“I wish that you are here with me / feeling the waves again / Pretend to be who we want to be / All over again.”

From “The Morning”:

“Cause I don’t know what it feels like to be without you / I’m falling heavy now / I’m falling to the ground.” 

From “Can’t Hardly Wait”:

“Darling you are my weakness / just a smile, a wink, a laugh / Oh God I feel my knees go weak / So if you say you want to escape with me / I would gladly go with you and I am gonna show you / That I’m the one / For You.”

They just released a new track called “What Went Wrong,” and, yeah, I cared more about the possible Donnie Darko references than the song itself. The lyrics are still generic, but hey - at least it’s not cheesy.

 They’re releasing their debut album soon, so I hope that’s much better than City Lights.
