Violent Machine

Violent Machine is the seventh studio album by guitarist Tony MacAlpine, released in 1996 through Metropolis Records (North America) and in 1997 through Victor Entertainment (Japan); it was reissued on May 7, 2002 through Lion Music, with the latter featuring different cover art and having apparently been released without the authorization of MacAlpine or Metropolis.

Personnel

 * Tony MacAlpine – guitar, keyboard, mixing, production
 * Jerome Jones – vocals ("Hatred to Love")
 * Mike Terrana – drums
 * Kevin Chown – bass
 * Damir Simic Shime – engineering, mixing
 * Bob Fisher – mastering

Note: Although the back of the CD tray inlay for the 1996 Metropolis edition shows/lists Ricky Ricardo on bass, the liner notes in the cover booklet state: "All Bass Tracks Performed by Kevin Chown." The 2002 Lion edition correctly lists and shows Kevin Chown on bass, as does the back of the CD tray inlay.
