Mothra band recording progress update

Well we have 4 drum tracks in the can so far, and we’ll be aiming to lay down another 3-4 tracks soon. Hugh ripped a ligament in his wrist playing tennis about a month ago but it is healing up now and he’ll be tracking guitars soon enough. Bass for one track was layed down tonight, sounding big, and good.

We’ll be playing at the Kings Arms on July 15th, it’s been a while!

Mothra band recording progress

Recording is ticking along nicely when time is found amongst all band members’ busy schedules. Guitars will be tracked soon with this highly respected instrument, and more work on the video will commence next month in Belgium. We also have a show coming up at the Kings Arms June 17, seems like ages since we played!

Mothra – ‘Awake the Machine’ first ever performance (Auckland experimental metal)

Here’s some footage taken from our show at the Kings Arms the other week. It’s a new track (hence a bit sketchy in parts) that was a long time in the making, ‘Awake the Machine’. It will be recorded somewhere down the track but not on the first release, there are others waiting in line. We are on a roll now with the recording prep, drum tracking will commence soon.
