It all began in 1995 with the invention of the Motograter.
Credit goes to Bruce Butler, aka Grater, the innovator that created
the deep bass-sounding instrument that is the band's namesake.
With the release of their self-titled album in 2003, they hopped on
board Ozzfest with their original members. With the help of the tour, Motograter attracted tons of fans Worldwide.
Many thought the 2003 lineup was unstoppable; on their way to the top. But as most great things come to an end, so did they. Or so we thought?
Motograter is back with the new breed lineup including original guitarist Nuke, Motograterist Bruce, Twitch drums, Mylon bass, Tyler guitars, and the barking yet melodic vocals, of Angel. Motograter has been locked away in the Hills of Sacramento this past year writing the new album. They are now entering the studio to record with Motograters original producer James "Jimbo" Barton.
Maintaining their signature mud-like paint, the tribal look lends an
organic feel to their burnished industrial sound. Adding technically sound, guitar solos and heavy double-bass to the mix, Motograter is sick as ever.
What can be expected from the new album?
"We are staying true to our roots...catchy melodies, fast paced beats... but we have a more modern, HEAVY sound," says guitarist, Nuke. With that said, the anticipation grows. Motograter's new album is expected mid-2009.
Touring plans are in the works and will be posted shortly.
