\nMOTOGRATER have unleashed a new music video for the track \u201cDorian\u201d. Check it out below. Chris Davis directed the video, which was filmed at the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield, OH. Loudwire debuted the track and are also running a new interview with the band\u2019s drummer Noah \u201cShark\u201d Robertson. Motograter\u2018s sophomore effort \u201cDesolation\u201d hit stores last week.

\nMotograter was formed in 1995 and is most well known for their namesake instrument the \u201cMotograter\u201d, a mysterious contraption designed with industrial cable, guitar pieces, and other components, to create a unique, low, distorted bass sound. The band is widely known for their image, notorious for covering themselves in tribal style body paint. The early stages of the group\u2019s career consisted of heavy experimentation with industrial sounds, samples, and tribal drums. The band released two EP\u2019s \u2018Hugh Chardon\u2019 and \u2018Indy\u2019 and in 2001 were signed to Sever Records, founded by Dez Fafara of Coal Chamber. The band\u2019s sound continued to evolve, eventually incorporating a dark, groove-oriented guitar styling, that would help broaden the band\u2019s appeal and reach a wider audience.<\/p>\n

In 2003, the band inked a deal with No Name\/Elektra Records and released the highly acclaimed self-titled album, \u2018Motograter\u2019, featuring Ivan Moody (Five Finger Death Punch\/Ghost Machine) on vocals. The song \u201cSuffocate\u201d was featured on the soundtrack to the film The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The song \u201cDown\u201d is featured on the EA Sports video game Nascar Thunder 2004. Motograter toured on Ozzfest 2003. Motograter has toured with Ozzy Osbourne, Korn, Marilyn Manson, Chevelle, Disturbed, Ministry, Nothingface, Kittie, Mushroomhead, Cradle of Filth, Killswitch Engage, Chimaira, Shadows Fall, Voivod, and many more.
