My Sister's Machine

The Profile

My Sister’s Machine is an American grunge/heavy metal band from Seattle formed in 1989 by vocalist/guitarist Nick Pollock. They released two studio albums, Diva (1992) and Wallflower (1993), before disbanding in 1994.

Nick Pollock previously played with Layne Staley in the pre–Alice in Chains group Alice N’ Chains; key releases include the albums Diva (1992) and Wallflower (1993) and the singles I Hate You and Enemy.

One glowing review revisits Diva (1992) with fervor: angry, aggressive, and steeped in Seattle grit. The write-up praises Nick Pollock’s voice, metallic roots, fuzzed-out solos, and echoes of Alice In Chains and early Soundgarden. It namechecks standout cuts like I Hate You and nods to bass-driven crossover flavors. Wallflower (1993) gets a respectful salute before the band’s short-lived run fades to black.
