Artist History If ever there was a group that could have been the result of a tragic rock n’ roll hybrid of The Ramones and Black Sabbath (god forbid), that band could only be Motochrist. Formed on June 6, 1998, primarily as a way to get free drinks, the band rapidly became a force to be reckoned with as a result of their electrifying and often destructive live shows. Singer/bassist Danny Nordahl (New York Loose, Stiv Bators, The Throbs) and lead guitarist Marc Diamond (Blister, New York Loose, The Dwarves) teamed up with local gunslinger Ricky Vodka (Humble Gods, Doggy Style) to forge a unique sound that blended pop with power. Motochrist began their sonic assault with cuts on compilation albums such as “The Best of the Cadillac Club” and “Dr. Wu Compilation Volume 2” (available through Dr. Wu Records) which gave the public their first taste of The Christ.

Press Reviews “A tough hard sound...a tight blend of melody and straight-ahead guitar riffs which never [get] lost...” — Los Angeles Times, Steve Appleford “...[Motochrist] levels the audience with their southern fried proto-punk anthems...”— Bam Magazine, Jim Freek “[Motochrist] sounds like Motorhead jamming with the Ramones loaded on Budweiser... Full of heavy innebriated anthems that’ll drive ya to become a headbanger, an alcoholic, or both...” — LA Weekly, Lina Lecaro “Loud and stupid, just the way I like it...” — Flipside, Martin McMartin “Motochrist will crush your nuts into oblivion...” — anonymous web page signee
