Meat Machine was a British industrial rock band active during the first half of the 1990s.[1] The band released two singles and one album, Slug, with independent label Pandemonium Records.[1] Meat Machine was best known for the single "Times Of Addiction" which was played widely in industrial dance clubs and reached No. 7 on the Melody Maker Top Solid Grooves chart in 1992.[1][2] Their electro rock song "Charles Manson (Rise and Fall)" samples interviews with the murder cult leader and was Kerrang! magazine's Single of the Week in 1993.[3][4] The members of Meat Machine decided to split up after being approached to open for Nine Inch Nails in the UK and Europe.[3]
