Argonauta Records is thrilled to welcome Texas-based stoner rock trio Stone Machine Electric to our ever-growing roster of heavy, boundary-pushing artists! Renowned for their immersive and spacious brand of psychedelic jamming, which they have aptly named Doom Jazz, the band has been crafting their unique sonic identity since 2009.

Formed by Mark Kitchens and William (Dub) Irvin, Stone Machine Electric has been on an evolving journey, solidifying their lineup with the addition of bassist Erick Paxecko in 2023. Over the years, the band has independently released a demo, an EP, and five full-length albums, including their most recent record, »The Inexplicable Vibrations Of Frequencies Within The Cosmic Netherworld«, which saw the light via Desert Records. Their dynamic and powerful live presence has also been captured on the album »Vivere«, released through Off The Record Label.

No strangers to the road, Stone Machine Electric has extensively toured their home state of Texas, making waves in Arizona, Oklahoma, and Louisiana, and sharing the stage with heavyweights like King Buffalo, Mothership, Wo Fat, and Jucifer. They have also left their mark on the Texas festival circuit, performing at End Hip End It, Fuzzed Out Fest, and Heavy Mash.

The band’s relentless dedication has garnered international attention from tastemakers such as The Obelisk and Doomed & Stoned, as well as praise from local media like Fort Worth Weekly, which described their sound as: “You can practically see Conan praying to Crom right before a battle.”

Now, with a new chapter unfolding, Stone Machine Electric is set to release their upcoming album »Faces« under the Argonauta Records banner. The band comments:

“We’re excited to work with Gero and Argonauta Records on releasing »Faces« as the next stop in our journey as Stone Machine Electric! It will be great to be a part of what Argonauta has contributed to the heavy underground and look forward to bringing our style of heavy into the fold of the other great bands that make up what this label is about. We are honored to work with Argonauta, and are looking forward to getting our new music out as far as it can reach.”

Stay tuned for more details on »Faces«, tour dates, and further announcements from Stone Machine Electric and Argonauta Records!
