The German trio Mother Engine plays instrumental rock music
influenced by Stoner and Postrock as well as the trippy Psychedelic Rock of the
60s and 70s and the indigenous German Krautrock. It's no real surprise that
that the journey of that spaceship actually began at the tent stage of a big
German Stoner Rock festival in the year 2013. What we talk about is a spirit of
DIY, uncompromising endurance and the strong will to play every single stage.
After two records ('Muttermaschine' 2013, 'Absturz' 2015) and appreances at
many of the most important European scene festivals like Stoned from the
Underground, Freak Valley Festival, Sonic Blast Moledo, Into the Void or
Rotormania, it seems like they got their landing permission at the European
stages for heavy psychedelic music. In fall 2017 they will release their third
studio album 'Hangar' and doing a 6-week-tour through whole Europe
presenting the new material.
People who heard the new songs live talk about a kind of
stoner prog and maybe this impression hits right on the spot.
MODERN ENGINE are:
Chris Trautenbach (guitar)
Cornelius Grünert (drums)
Christian Dressel (bass)

A hammered 4-stroke beat like a twin cylinder engine running
on idle, a roaring guitar riff revving up the rpms of the iron-built
motorcycle-inspired band, then the fresh and insisting breeze of a Farfisa
organ whispering 'let's ride' and a heavy bass greasing up the reliable crank
and rods of that authentic rock'n'roll machine, and there goes, ladies and
gents, the mighty LORDS OF ALTAMONT combo! Riding hard on backyard-built, loud
pipes and rigid frame undestructible raw choppers, the band left their garage enlivened
by the year of 1969, right at the crossroads of the Summer of Love and the
birth of punk rock. Fueled up by the MC5, the Stooges and the Chambers Brothers
to name a few, the pack follows Jake 'The Preacher' Cavaliere (vocals, organ)
on his uncompromising rock'n'roll journey ; Dani Sindaco (gtr), Rob Zimmermann
(bass) and Steven Van Der Werff (drums) along with their frontman are now
spreading out The Wild Sounds of the Lords of Altamont, their latest record,
around the planet!
Through fads and fashions, either on wax or on stage, the
Lords can take you back to this era of freedom and rebellion with their
hi-octane tunes. The gang has been already rocking the world for 17 years with
spectacular performances, firmly run-in by 5 solid stainless records and
they're now fine-tuned with this new release of 11 powerful late-sixties tracks
which manage to sound fiendishly contemporary!
THE LORDS OF ALTAMONT are
