Fake Dad’s Machinery is a searing, teeth-grinding anthem that takes aim at the toxic expectations placed on women in the music industry. With distorted guitars and a punchy, pop-rock backbone, the track channels frustration into an electrifying callout of an industry that often prioritizes image over artistry. Frontwoman Andrea de Varona’s sharp lyricism cuts through the noise, exposing how these pressures pit women against each other while the real problem—societal gatekeepers—remains unchecked.

As the final single from their upcoming EP, Holly Wholesome and The Slut Machine, Machinery embodies Fake Dad’s evolution into a band unafraid to challenge norms, both sonically and thematically. With their signature mix of gritty rock and dream pop shimmer, the duo continues to carve out a space that feels raw, rebellious, and deeply personal.
