  • We chat via Zoom with Chris Motionless as he tells us about life in lockdown and working on new Motionless In White music remotely. Plus, we reflect on the huge success of the single 'Another Life', taken from the album 'Disguise', and it's incredible remix by Beartooth's Caleb Shomo. Finally, we look towards the upcoming tenth anniversary of MIW's debut album 'Creatures', how Chris reflects on that landmark record and what he has in store to celebrate the occasion.

    A few years ago, for a long time, Motionless In White was my second favourite band after Asking Alexandria (hence the username), but it's just things like how much MIW cares for its fans that solidifies it at the top spot. The former completely ignores and shrugs off long time fans' wishes, but MIW man! Creatures isn't even my favourite album, but the way you guys choose to honour and reward your long time fans is so admirable and respectable! As far as public figures go, Chris is one of my favourite people. Love all of you guys and very excited to hear what's next.

    Creatures was their best album hands down. It doesn't matter how much the band disagrees, they wouldn't be where they are without it.

      @@gutcheckfm Gotcha. Damn, to be honest, I'm happy for him on a personal level. But in my selfish fan perspective, man that really hurts INK imo. I mean his writing will at least keep them consistent, but without his vocals I really feel like the final product will greatly struggle to live up to the stuff he provided vocals for. Again, not to discredit the lineup as it is now, but I really feel JD and Spencer were by far the best vocal duo to ever grace a Metalcore song together. So losing 1 of them I think is gonna be detrimental to them going forward
