Hear Motives’ new record Death Throes, out March 13 via Smartpunk Records, with us first.
“We’ve put a ton of blood sweat and tears into this record, and the guys and I are so excited to finally release it into the wild,” says Kevin Burrows. “These songs come from a wide range of our personal emotions, and hopefully you can hear them when you listen.”
Undeniably energetic, bold, and dripping with passion, years on the road have helped Motives command attention the second they take the stage. Hailing from Cleveland, the gritty five-piece are set to wage sonic war on the airwaves with their latest release Death Throes.
Founded before the end of the world in 2012, members Kevin Burrows (guitar), Daniel Ackerman (bass), Ian Slagle (vocals), Chris Hanford (guitar), and Mike Taddeo (drums) have used their special blend of heavy,-yet-somber sound to get listeners to not only listen but to act. Soundtracking internal battles while contemplating mortality, the future’s looking bleak, and Motives are here to champion the sound.
