Data Insight

Twelve tracks, credited to Wayne Static, Tony Campos and Ken Jay rather than to the band as a whole, because the fourth member had gone. It is the first sign of a pattern: the credit line follows the lineup exactly, with no outside writers filling the gap.

Machine came out on Warner Bros. in May 2001 and has sold 400,320 in the United States. Koichi Fukuda had left, and Tripp Eisen played guitar on tour.
