Band Name: The Motorleague
Song Title: Hymn For The Newly Departed
Genre: Rock
Label: Drive Records (Canada)
Location: Moncton, New Brunswick
Biography:
It's mere seconds into a typical track by The Motorleague that listeners realize what they're in for. Be it a blistering single-string guitar riff delivered through an amp that's seemingly been set afire or a bludgeoning smash to the snare drum, this band delivers its punk-influenced hard rock with an unrelenting urgency from start to finish. Or at least that was the case with the band's heralded 2009 debut LP, Black Noise, and its 10 hooky, bottom-heavy bangers; however, while their 2013 follow-up Acknowledge, Acknowledge features a flurry of high-energy, riff-anchored rock, it's also much more dynamic and expressive -- and that was the idea from the outset.
Formed in Moncton, NB with relics of revered local rock outfits The Ditchpigs and The Monoxides, The Motorleague was originally an outlet for lead vocalist/guitarist/primary songwriter Don Levandier and his band mates to blend a penchant for '90s skate punk with the sludgier sounds of stoner rock. "I never knew whether I wanted to be in a punk band or Fu Manchu rip-off," Levandier says of the group's formative years, and even now, traces of each are audible in the band's output.
