Ventura's The Flower Song

Swiss band Ventura played a cover of The God Machine's 'The Flower Song' at the Lozane's Burning festival in Lausanne, Switzerland on January 13 2007.
They pulled it off really well. If I'm not mistaken the singer even used the same guitar as Robin did back then. See for yourself:


If you want to compare Ventura's cover with the original version of 'The Flower Song' here's your chance:

The Machines

Some of you might know that there's several other bands out there that are also called Sophia (ranging from new age, cold wave to Japanese boysband).

Now it seems that even The God Machine is no longer a unique band name. These guys: www.godmachinemusic.com also named their band 'God Machine'.
They certainly got a lot of work to do if they wanna come anywhere near the utter brilliance that was 'our' beloved God Machine.
They can start by ditching the macho rock star pose. ;-)
