Eric Winston — Sun, 17 Jul 2022 19:33:03 +0000

PRESS RELEASE

Contact: Eric Winston, winston@mbrigade.com

Website: https://mbrigade.com

Album Release Date: September 8, 2022

Motihari Brigade’s second album release Algorithm & Blues (2022) features defibrillating electric guitar, tachycardia rhythms on bass, and drums played by an octopus on stimulants. Layered keyboard, horn, and vocal arrangements combine to produce the magic of a highly-caffeinated rock band thumping on all ventricles. Twelve original songs and one cover provide an energetic soundtrack for listeners to more happily navigate the dystopian reality show that we are all now busily sharing.

Algorithm & Blues raucously competes for any remaining crumbs of attention span still left available despite the onslaught of big-tech media that currently dominates the psychological crisis of human consciousness. Listen to Motihari Brigade and howl with rebellious defiance while zombies gaze at hypnotic images flickering on their smart appendages.

Motihari Brigade’s music is Rock-N-Roll Thoughtcrime inspired by Orwell, – intended as an independent alternative to the official programming that overwhelms our tele-screens.

The album’s cover art features red wine spilling from a shattered glass of elegant stemware, symbolizing the decadent party that is winding down while a new generation seeks its place in a diminished world.

Motihari Brigade’s previous release Power From Below (2020) had reviewers buzzing:

“…there’s scarcely a moment in Motihari Brigade’s first studio album . . . . where we aren’t feeling the crushing intensity of a band playing at full power…” Garth Thomas, Hollywood Digest

“…awfully close to a one of a kind product . . . . This is a group that is very much onto something smart and original in the most important of ways…” Mindy McCall, Indie Pulse Music

“Motihari Brigade doesn’t waste any time getting right down to the business of rocking with a cool, confident demeanor . . . . it absolutely lives up to the buzz surrounding its release and then some.” Nicole Killian, MobYorkCity

“… thinking person’s music, and should be required listening.″ Tom Haugen, Take Effect

U.K. born singer, songwriter, and guitarist Eric Winston is the philosopher-serf behind Motihari Brigade’s unique sound and concept.

Escape zombie dystopia. Take the colored pill of your choice. Blink your eyes and smile. The theme album for the great disintegration has arrived – just in time for something new to rise from the ashes. Or perhaps not. We’ll see.

Algorithm & Blues is scheduled for release on September 8, 2022 and will be available through popular digital download/streaming services, and on compact disk (UPC 195269176655) Creative Destruction Records.

New Album Press Release

Motihari Brigade Release New Album “Power From Below”

Release Date: January 28, 2020

Motihari Brigade creates high-energy revolution rock as a beacon for those seeking their independent lost tribe. The new album Power From Below evokes the encouraging electric sound of “Bernie Sanders meets Helter Skelter.” They are a voice in the wilderness calling “We are on our own, but not alone” – words inscribed on the electric guitar from the album’s cover art.

Motihari Brigade provide an antidote to the official programming overwhelming our tele-screens. Their music is Rock-N-Roll thoughtcrime – inspired by George Orwell and the anti-fascist International Brigades from the Spanish Civil War.

“Turn off and tune out the machine” the title track Power From Below implores. Motihari Brigade are the soundtrack to the dystopian reality show we are all now busily sharing on our smart phones.

The song Talking To Crazy – also an animated cartoon video – highlights the band’s hopeful blend of humor and cynicism. The story’s heroes struggle against spiral-eyed zombies and demagogue politicians, urged on by the sounds of Motihari Brigade until they eventually find their tribe and each other.

The band’s first single “Power To The People”, a ska version cover of John Lennon’s 1971 anthem, is featured on the Spotify Playlist “Protest Songs – soundtrack of the revolution.”

U.K. born singer and lead guitar player Eric Winston wrote eight original songs from the album’s eleven tracks, while three covers are included as fresh homage to the revolution rock tradition.

The album is scheduled for release on January 28, 2020, and will be available through popular digital download and streaming services and on compact disk. (UPC Code 888295951548). Find your tribe at: mbrigade.com
