Let all your stories turn into fables with time

About Me

Immaculate Machine is an indie-rock band that lives on an island. In order to be able to travel freely to and from their geographically isolated homeland, they have made a rock album. This album is called Immaculate Machine's Fables. It is a series of vignettes about travelling. It was made with the help of esteemed colleagues such as producers Colin Stewart (Black Mountain, Pretty Girls Make Graves) and John Collins/Dave Carswell (New Pornographers, Tegan & Sara), violinist Owen Pallett (Final Fantasy, Arcade Fire), and back-up vocalists Alex Kapranos (Franz Ferdinand) and The Cribs. Fables, the band's sophomore label effort, is due out in June and will be followed by tours of North America and Europe...... Immaculate Machine released its label debut on Mint Records in September 2005. Ones and Zeros was supported with tours in Canada, the USA, England and Europe, including a support tour for Destroyer and The New Pornographers. The album was followed in October 2006 by an EP of French translations of a selection of the songs from Ones and Zeros, which was met with puzzled enthusiasm.
