Archive material and source history
Able Machines formed in 1995 with Nicholas van Orton as the frontman. They put out albums like 'Disintegration' in 1997 and 'Damnation' in 2001, working in an electro-industrial style that mixed electronic rhythms with darker lyrical themes. The band had a rotating lineup that sometimes included guitarist Michael Morley and keyboardist Isabella Severin.
Their 1999 album 'Narcissist' became their most recognized work, with the title track serving as something of a signature song for them.
Able Machines stopped putting out new music around the mid-2000s. Their records, particularly 'Narcissist,' maintained a following in certain corners of the industrial and underground electronic scenes after they were done.
