Motorlord Announce MOTORLORD II — Out March 13, 2026

Upstate New York heavy metal outfit Motorlord have officially announced the digital release of their second full-length album, MOTORLORD II, arriving Friday, March 13, 2026. Preorders will open March 6 across major platforms.

Formed in 2017 in Chittenango, New York, Motorlord first established their identity with the 2020 self-titled debut Motorlord — a riff-driven heavy metal record that introduced the band’s twin-guitar attack and thematic focus on war, magic, nightmares, and psychological intensity.

At the core of the band’s sound is the dual vocal and guitar partnership of Ian O’Rourke and Ray “Goobie” Caro. Their interplay delivers melodic precision and muscular rhythm work, forming the backbone of Motorlord’s sonic identity. Beneath that, Thom Hall provides a commanding low-end presence on bass, while “Diesel” Don Smith drives the momentum from behind the kit with power and force.

The debut album generated strong underground traction and helped the band build a loyal following through tight songwriting and unapologetic heavy metal conviction. Now, six years later, Motorlord return with Motorlord II, signaling a sharpened and evolved chapter while remaining firmly rooted in classic metal DNA.

MOTORLORD II will be available on all major streaming platforms.

Release Date: March 13, 2026
Preorders Begin: March 6, 2026
