BBC Radio 1, BBC 6Music, Xfm, Channel Five, MTV2, Scuzz and various local stations. Chris recorded and mixed the album from his home studio. It was followed by the second album ‘Champion The Underdog’ in May 2011, which was supported by tours in both the UK and Europe, cementing the band as a formidable live prospect and building a burgeoning fanbase. This was recorded and mixed by Chris and Jason Edwards (Wildhearts/Wolfsbane). The Sun once again awarded a rave review, saying ‘Eureka Machines could be the best band you’ve never heard’. In 2012, the band appeared in the British soap opera Emmerdale, playing at a fictional music festival, filmed as part of the soap’s 40th birthday celebrations, alongside Scouting For Girls, The Proclaimers and Brendan Croker.

In April 2019, Eureka Machines released fifth album ‘Victories’, again appearing on the Wrath Records imprint. This followed yet another victorious PledgeMusic campaign but a mistake with them not registering it for the UK charts meant that, in spite of increased sales from the last album, it did not chart. This time, the band donated 10% of the profits from the album to their friend Scott Sorry (Wildhearts/Amen/Brides Of Destruction) following his
