Tin Machine is tagged as: rock, hard rock, alternative, david bowie, alternative rock Tin Machine was a hard rock band formed in 1988, famous for being fronted by singer David Bowie. The group recorded two studio albums and a live album before dissolving in 1992, when Bowie returned to his solo career. The group was generally reviled, often receiving scathing critical reviews. David Bowie’s Never Let Me Down album (already a move into slightly “harder” rock territory) and subsequent “Glass Spider Tour” had been savaged by critics, and the singer was aware of his low stock. Eager to return to making music for himself rather than the mainstream audience he had acquired following the Let’s Dance album, Bowie began collaborating with Reeves Gabrels (who pushed the singer to rediscover his experimental side and went on to work closely with Bowie for much of the next decade) and multi-instrumentalist Erdal Kizilcay on new material in 1988. The first fruits of this came with a new version of Bowie’s 1979 song “Look Back in Anger”, performed at the “Intruders At The Palace” benefit concert on 1 July 1988. They then began to plan a concept album based on Steven Berkoff’s play East as a Bowie solo album, but this idea was scrapped. Bowie and Gabrels began working with producer Tim Palmer on new material. ... Read More About Tin Machine Biography...  Send Tin Machine ringtones to your cell
