JOHN MACKO: Zero-Point Machine

[KingsGene]

FIFTH ANGEL Bassist JOHN MACKO Releases Zero-Point Machine Album Featuring FLOTSAM AND JETSAM’s KEN MARY And Others​

"... John Macko, renowned bassist of Fifth Angel, proudly presents his long-anticipated project album, Zero-Point Machine – a bold and masterful exploration beyond the power metal boundaries he is known for. Years in the making, the record showcases musical ideas and compositions that diverged from Fifth Angel’s trademark sound, allowing Macko to fully embrace the diverse influences of his youth and transform them into a unique artistic statement.

Blending progressive rock, jazz fusion, and modern metal, Zero-Point Machine delivers a rich, cinematic listening experience that guides the audience through an epic musical journey. To bring this vision to life, Macko enlisted an exceptional team of musicians: guitarist and sound designer Adrian Thessenvitz (Ad Infinitum), vocalist and lyricist Georgie Chapple, and long-time bandmate Ken Mary (Alice Cooper, House Of Lords, Fifth Angel, Flotsam And Jetsam) on drums, forming a lineup capable of translating the album’s ambitious musical scope into reality.

Speaking about the creation of the album, Macko reflects:

This project allowed me to explore musical expressions that didn’t fit within the framework of Fifth Angel. These songs represent parts of my musical identity that I’ve carried with me for years, and finally bringing them to life with such incredible musicians has been an amazing and emotional experience.
