Out Now! Edmonton’s SOMETHING MECHANICAL New EP ‘Less Than Human’

Inspired by Alice in Chains, Nirvana, Days Of The New, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden, Edmonton, AB’s SOMETHING MECHANICAL are best described as “original, honest, blue collar, catchy and straightforward!”.

Their new EP ‘Less Than Human’ is now available as of March 17, 2017 to follow their 2015 self-titled debut album. Their singles ‘In Shadows’ and ‘Gun’ can streamed at the following links.

‘In Shadows’ – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yp2EVOn-jNI

‘Gunn’ – https://soundcloud.com/puregrainaudio/something-mechanical-gunn

Vocalist / guitarist Colin Pearce feels that ‘Less Than Human’ will be well-received with its five hard hitting tracks.

“We really trimmed away the fat, so to speak, we focused on each song more fully and our fans will be able to hear that.  We’re happy with it and we think they will be too.”

‘Less Than Human’ can be downloaded on iTunes or the band’s official website www.somethingmechanical.com.


Track Listing:
1. Gunn (3:19)
2. Less Than Human (2:38)

EP Length: 18:41

“These guys are a fantastic unit as they put their hearts & souls into what they do! … A very raucous & highly spirited band!” – Way Out Radio 

“their latest single ‘Gunn’ is a no-nonsense, hard-hitting rock anthem, firing shots at disloyal friends from days gone by. The gritty vocals, driving rhythm and furious guitar work is sure to appeal to fans of the classic grunge sound, as well as of modern hard rock heroes such as Shinedown and Alter Bridge…their upcoming EP is going to be a real force to be reckoned with. If you’re looking for some straightforward, in-your-face rock then look no further.” – Belwood Music

Edmonton, AB’s Something Mechanical will be releasing their new EP ‘Less Than Human’ on March 17, 2017 to follow their 2015 self-titled debut album. Inspired by Alice in Chains, Nirvana, Days Of The New, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden, vocalist/ guitarist Colin Pearce describes their music as “original, honest, blue collar, catchy and straightforward!”

He pulls no punches whatsoever when it comes to the theme of their music. “Rebel! Stand up for yourself. Fight against the seemingly inevitable normality of the world. Be your own person on your own path whenever you can.”

Names have power, a certain metaphysical magic that adds muscle and mystique to the music, as Pearce reveals the origins of Something Mechanical’s unique identity.

“I was thinking about life and how everything becomes routine and people just go through the motions. We wanted to write about rebelling against that fate and that really is what this band is about.”

Pearce feels that ‘Less Than Human’ will be well-received with its five hard hitting tracks. “We really trimmed away the fat, so to speak, we focused on each song more fully and our fans will be able to hear that.  We’re happy with it and we think they will be too.”

Something Mechanical’s deep passion for their music permeates every note they play. “We like music to be direct, so you can just put it on and sink your teeth into it right away! Then after a while you notice the messages that are underlying. That’s the goal. Good music to listen to and a deeper thought to sit with it.”

Live, Something Mechanical’s music is even more intense. They try to respect the audience’s time as much as possible. They run a tight show, with few interruptions, as close to non-stop music show as they can because people come to hear the music, not their deep, dark thoughts on life.  Overall it’ll be a fun show and memorable to walk away from.

Something Mechanical’s new EP ‘Less Than Human’ will be available iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and all major online retailers.

Track By Track explained by vocalist / guitarist Colin Pearce:

1. Gunn – A time in my life when I thought I had a lot of friends, but it turned out they weren’t real friends.

2. Less Than Human – Government, corruption and apathy. What are you letting happen to you?

3. Needful Things – Consumerism, consumerism, consumerism… and how nothing is made to last.

4. In Shadows – This one is a bit theatrical. I scared myself watching documentaries about killer celebrity stalkers and how they think/ their delusions.

5. Pretty Misery – Hope in the darkness. It sounds cheesy, but people are often their best in bad situations. You find out what matters to you. You get focused on what matters.
