Combining hardcore punk, improvisation, metal, funk and fusion in a seamless and dynamic new music, Motor Humming is at the forefront of instrumental experimental rock and one of the most original bands in Japan. Musical Aluminum (a light metal) is their first CD, and it features an incredible range of pieces in a program you will find exciting, challenging and fun.
