Elektro Guzzi's line-up might resemble that of a traditional rock band, but their music doesn't sound like anything you would expect from a guitar/bass/drums three-piece. Rather than using machines, the three Viennese musicians Bernhard Breuer, Bernhard Hammer, and Jakob Schneidewind become machines themselves, creating precise, pattern-oriented pieces that resembles techno tracks rather than rock songs. Produced by fellow Viennese Patrick Pulsinger, Electro Guzzi have been signed to Stefan Goldmann's Marco label for their acclaimed debut album.

yeah!
The Album Live P.A.
was reviewed:
On the concert stage Elektro Guzzi take their unique brand of live-played acoustic techno to a whole new level, and 'Live P.A.' does a great job in capturing this experience. A 45 minute live recording is complemented by four new tracks, making for an excellent demonstration of the Viennese trio's proficiency.
