Motograter

Since there's a retarded thread about Slipknot, I feel that there should be one about Motograter. I guess some may see them as Slipknot clones because they wear tribal makeup and have more than six members. But my opinion, way better and different that those 9 masked jackasses. They don't scream like pussies like the newer bands out there, Ghost is actually a really good singer. Plus they have a talented drummer as well. But whats odd about them, they only have one guitarist and no bassist. Also one member plays a homemade drum called a Motograter. So if you haven't checked them out because you thought they would be another Slipknot, guess again and check 'em out.

OK, there's 'more than six' of them, comprising only one guitarist and no bassist? I presume there's also one drummer and one vocalist from what you said. So we've got vocals, guitar and drums - what the fuck are the other 'more than 3' doing?

First off Trans, I thought the samething when I first saw them. But when I heard their music I decided that their way to good to be Slipknot.As for the tribal makeup and extra members, I read their bio and its says they've been around since 1993 I think. But they could have started the make up thing later, but I don't care. I like their music, I don't care what they look like; even though imagery is okay sometimes when it comes to music.

As for the members, here's the musicians I know they have. A singer, guitarist, drummer, a motograter player, keyboardist, tribal drummer, and a sampler. Don't ask me what a motograter sounds like, I can't hear it. But their music is good in my opinion. I'm sure they're are some that don't like them.

The tribal make up doesn't fit with their music. I was surprised they were kinda mellow. So don't knock it til you try it, man.

The last time I heard that I woke up in a bath tub...

When I saw them they were painted black and white, but I believe they have painted themselves red.

I didn't find them to be all that great when I saw them at ozzfest 2003. The singer seems to rap more than to growl or something. yo yo...Most of the bands at ozzfest 2003 sucked except for shadows fall, killswitch engage, and cradle of filth. I didn't see the main stage because it didn't have all that much and ozzy was sick. This last year (2004) seemed better so yeah...

Not really in their defense but I didn't know he rapped or growled,and I own their cd. Well I don't really mind, I still think he's a good singer.

Shadows Fall and Killswitch was on Ozzfest? I was going to go but I don't remember seeing them in the line up. Oh wait, I was thinking of this year's Ozzfest.

A Motograter is what happens when you fuck up a bass, and add random shit.

No bass=No good.

Plus I don't like them.

So there.

No more nu-metal threads.

i could make my bio say ive been playing music for 30 years, but that doesnt mean it is ture, so your 1993 thing could just be a "we swear we are not rip offs, honest"

arent misquotes fun?
