Band Line Up 2013

remained vast, with few bands capable of capturing both the untamed

wildness of bygone eras and the focused energy of contemporary metal.

MOTHERLOAD are here to bridge that gap! Monstrous riffs and instant

choruses arise naturally from a determination to forge well-crafted songs,

always striking a balance between musical integrity and big, anthemic rock.

The four members combined their collective experience in 2011 to form

MOTHERLOAD and immediately received a favourable review from Malcolm

Dome in Metal Hammer for their debut EP. 2012 saw persistent gigging,

topped off by a momentous appearance at Hard Rock Hell which also

garnered rave reviews in the rock and metal press. Classic Rock Magazine

announced to the World that "Motherload do a sweet job of bridging the gap

between classic rock and modern metal... they mean business".

Now, in 2013, MOTHERLOAD are set to unleash their debut album ‘Black and

Blue’ upon an audience of passionate rock fans who know what they want

and have waited patiently to receive it. No gimmicks, no niche. Just

hard-hitting hard-rock played with dedication

"It's a huge honour to be playing Bloodstock and a big step for Motherload. Bring some ale, we'll bring the riffs."
