A British fusion/progressive rock group named after the book of the same name. They were a central band in the Canterbury Scene of musicians. They started off as a psychedelic band, performing at the UFO club of Pink Floyd fame. Their best album is, without a doubt, Third, which is fusion in the style of Miles Davis's Bitches Brew. It's very trippy.
Some famous members were Robert Wyatt, Mike Ratledge, Hugh Hopper, Kevin Ayers, and Allan Holdsworth.

I was listening to Third by Soft Machine, and it was so awesome that everybody came over and had a good time.

Get the Soft Machinemug. by The Return of Light Joker July 7, 2010
Get the cog in the machinemug. When a male goes to a social gathering (such as a bar or club) and tries to chat up every female at said gathering.
A male in machine mode who gets knocked back by a female, will quickly forget about the female and move on to another female, often the nearest female to the first female and probably the first female's friend.

Friend 1 @ a club: "Alright mate, where you been for the last hour?"
Friend 2 @ the club: "No time to chat, I'm in machine mode tonight, I've already been knocked back by half the girls here... time to move on to the fat chicks. Later."

Get the Swag Machinemug. A mechanical device used to simulate human coitus. A more sophisticated version of the much simpler vibrator. The device can be used by females to excite the vagina and by either sex to excite the anus. These devices may be associated with, but are not limited to, BDSM play.
A typical machine works by the transfer of rotational force from a motor to a directional motion on a shaft, which is tipped by a dildo.

Get the vending machinemug. A car (usually crappy import 4 cylinder or domestic equiv) driven by a sad pathetic excuse for a male; not necessarily of Italian descent, but most likely; usually native to the New York/New Jersey Tri-State area. Usually outfitted with ridiculous rims, a ridiculous spoiler, etc, etc.
