| Who the hell is Motown Rage? |
|
CCR writes " From the Motown Rage website -
Back before it was rap/rock was the the radio freindly, commercial wave of sometimes watered down music you hear today,a band called Harms Way was ripping up stages all across the country, opening up for such artists as Kid Rock (who produced many tracks for them) I.C.P., and their good friends Pantera. Well as time went on, music biz b.s. began to wear on certain members, new members came and went, but the core of the group, Razor Ray (guitar and vocals), and Steve Berger aka 2 def (bass) remained intact with one goal in mind...BLOWING UP."
