The aggressive post-grunge thrash of Motograter's self-titled debut is easily derivative of new-millennium alt-metal. Led by the hungry growl of Ghost, Motograter is typically critical of social norms and American capitalism, and such anger carries the band's tantrum-like playing style. The 22-track album consists of 11 songs spelled correctly, while their snippet sequels are fillers with backwards titles, and such a design captures Motograter's own adverse mystique. Layered guitars chug on cuts like "Red," "Wrong," and "Prophecies" as Ghost's gnawing vocal whine is a near match for Korn's Jonathan Davis. "Get Back" and "Suffocate" are equal in rage, but with a punk rock appeal. Motograter's first album doesn't do anything different from what's already out there, and those fans who relish in fighting conventionality will probably enjoy the furor of this Texas-bred foursome.
