Medicine called it quits in 1996 after an incredible debut record and two very fine follow-ups. The reason for the split was the usual: creative differences. Main Medicine man Brad Laner moved on to other bands and projects, including the experimental techno-influenced Electric Company. At the urging of his pal Kid 606 (whose Tigerbeat6 label had released some Electric Company discs), Laner decided to resurrect to the Medicine moniker. Unlike with the original band's '90s albums, however, Laner does a fair bit of singing on The Mechanical Forces of Love.

The album was Medicine's first record in eight years, and their first album since the group's split. The album also marks the group's re-introduction of a female vocalist: singer and actress Shannon Lee, daughter of karate actor Bruce Lee. The Mechanical Forces of Love is Lee's first appearance with the group; previously, vocals were provided. by Beth Thompson Style. The album's genre has been classified as dream pop, indie electronic, and.
In the mid-’90s, Medicine’s ravishing dream-pop filled the void vacated by MBV. Alan McGee even licensed them to Creation. Now on maverick dance label Wall Of Sound, Medicine are radically different if no less remarkable. Lynchpin Brad Laner has teamed up with Shannon Lee, breathy vocalist and daughter of Bruce Lee. They’ve devised a weird but workable collision of Beach Boys/West Coast harmonies with beats’n’glitches electronica and mangled sci-fi noise. The love and sex theme is earthy, but everything else sounds beamed in from another galaxy.
After that album was released in 1994, Medicine fell from this planet and ceased to exist. While Medicine previously hid those elements under a guitar-centric sound, Laner now fully examines them. The opening track to The Mechanical Forces of Love enters with exactly those sonic nuts and bolts: "As You Do" elicits tech-pop that bounces and bubbles through your stereo with an undeniably upbeat guise. Laner now distills his former main musical ingredients - guitars, feedback and noise - to the mere background of Medicine.
