About “Broken Machine”

Nothing But Thieves' second studio album released on the 8th of September, 2017 through American music label Sony Music Entertainment.

The concept came alive soon after the band had written and demoed “Broken Machine,” the 4th track, which became the centerpiece of the album.

Lead singer Conor Mason describes it as a metaphor for systems that seem perfect on the surface but cracked underneath, whether that’s mental health, love, religion, or even politics.

The singles leading up to the album’s release are “Amsterdam,” released on May 2, 2017, “Sorry” released on August 14, 2017, “Broken Machine” released on August 21, 2017, “I’m Not Made By Design” released on August 26, 2017, and “Particles” released on January 11, 2018.
