MAQUINA. release new single 'misfit' coming soon on super ltd 12" w/ poster and share upcoming tour dates!
NEW MAQUINA. Lisbon trio unleash new single ‘misfit’, out digitally today and on a super limited black 12" coming soon with a fold-out A2 film poster and @leroysemeurt remix on the flip-side. Listen now and pre-order the vinyl (limited to /250 hand-numbered copies) here
Clocking in at nearly 9 minutes of raw, scuzzy power, ‘misfit’ is a menacing, slow-grinding clash between floor-shaking EBM and industrial krautrock repetition. It arrives following their 2024 ‘PRATA’ LP, the recent vinyl reissue of their debut ‘DIRTY TRACKS FOR CLUBBING’ LP and in the midst of relentless touring across Europe and the UK. The full digital/physical release and accompanying video by Gabriel Nery will be unleashed on Halloween (Oct 31st) but the A-side is streaming everywhere now.
“This song was created with the idea of a soundtrack for a horror movie in mind. We were invited to record a track right after finishing the recording of our second album PRATA. At the time, we didn’t have any song or idea ready, but we accepted the challenge. Around that period, Boy Harsher had released ‘The Runner’ and was putting out ‘My Animal’, which was very inspiring for us to start shaping our proposal. It was also a time when we were watching a lot of horror films, and I think all of that combined helped the idea develop naturally. The song tells a story of a hunt, an evil mind; perhaps a stalker, or simply paranoia. PLAY IT LOUD!”
