With a soul-confronting riff that refuses to die out and disappear, “Ventilator” quickly escalates into a massive emo momentum. From the raw rain of punk rock soundscapes, Human Dinosaur Machine proves to be one hard to look away from. They demand your attention. They give their audience all and more. They are a band that rather burn out than disappear.

“Ventilator” is exhilarating. It’s an intensive, chaotic mess like all the good punk songs are. A confrontation and contradiction of itself, but such chaos is forth moving. It’s forging a new path, even though the destination does not matter. Its existence is enough to ignite something in the crowd. It signals the beginning of an end and the beginning of a new ear, The thrilling journey comprised of all noises and threads and melodic passion interwoven into an epic soundtrack of change. And that is something to be admired for.

Drawing inspirations from early aught’s emo and pop punk, Human Dinosaur Machine shares an authentic retro aesthetic that resembles Paramore, Smashing Pumpkins, and Jane’s Addiction. But they are grittier and embrace the sonic power of an earlier punk, tracing back to the second waves in the late ‘70s.

The new single signals the exciting return of this dynamic band following their cult hit “Spaghetti” and sets the tone for their self-titled forthcoming LP. With their last single, the band has scored number five on the Amrap Community radio charts during its first week of release. The track also gained thousands of hearts across the underground music scene and became a favorite for radio.
