"BEAUTIFUL OUTSIDER" at Shibuya O-East

On November 30th, "machine" held their tour "BEAUTIFUL OUTSIDER" in Shibuya "O-East", Shibuya. They will release their new album on the 23rd of January, their first album to release in 2 and a-half years. The album shares the same name as the tour.
Since the band was first formed in 1999, they disbanded in 2002 and got back together again in 2004. Machine has established a unique digital pop sound and has remained a perennial favorite. This, however, does not mean that the huge fan base of "PENICILLIN", "media youth" or "hide with Spread Beaver" is backing both popular big bands' front man; they are far more superior than that. Machine set up to build an original sound, which nobody else had done before.

This time musicJAPANplus features the evolving machine and reports on their performance in Tokyo from their tour, held in Kobe and Tokyo.
