True talent can be found anywhere: black metal in China, NWOBHM worship in Peru, crushing death in Indonesia, yet brilliant psychedelic doom rock which easily can compete with todays high international standards from Thuringia, a state in the eastern part of Germany, is still quite a surprising discovery though the region is renowned for its diverse music scene.
MOTOROWL quickly developed a heavy sound blessed with fabulous riffs, great vocal melodies, and a grinding Hammond organ on top. Think SPIRITUAL BEGGARS or Uriah Heep on a bad acid trip. Think 70s inspired, damn heavy hard rock with a contemporary, gloomy twist.
Created with pure passion and incredible, mature song-writing skills, the bands debut, “Om Generator”, was co-produced by Fabian Hildebrandt (of label mates DESERTED FEAR) and the mighty Dan Swanö took over mix and mastering duties.
Dan Swanö: "Amazing mixture of stoner and 70s hard rock executed with finesse. I had an amazing time mixing their songs, that always seemed to take a turn towards the unexpected."
Shows with bands such as Solstafir, Hexvessel or High on Fire and festivals like Burg Herzberg and Desertfest just showed what this band is about: Music from the heart, straight energy and a very well defined approach when it comes to fresh ideas and good songwriting.
