Mother Cell

The Mothercell started out in the Fall of 2010. When Jordan Stadler got in contact with Shawn Broussard to start a band, they had no idea set in mind for the type of music they had wanted to play. Around the few ideas they kicked around they wanted it to be different from the average Metalcore/Post-Hardcore you hear everywhere. After a few practice sessions, they got in touch with Josh Miller, being both had been in bands with him before, they knew of his abilities. With a clear outlook they started practicing and writing songs and in less than 2 months played their first show December 30th at the Patterson Skate Rink in Louisiana. Back then they were under the name Robot Unicorn Attack, from the popular Adult Swim online game. After playing a few shows and looking for a bass player, they found Wesley Strain a bassist who had recently left his band Animus, a local deathcore band. With more sound and instruments to destruct they branched out playing all around south Louisiana nearly playing shows every weekend. Around the month of May Wesley's friend Andrew Lottinger joined the band as a 2nd Guitarist. And thus the band was filled. We got our first line of merch, recorded our first EP. Then came the summer of 2011, July 30th was Andrew and Wesley's last show with the band, as Andrew left for college and Wesley left for personal reasons. Sydney Sabin (squid), had filled in previous shows for Wesley Strain and The Mothercell liked the stage presence she had with the crowd and they music and thus became the permanant bass player. They had played more shows and a few festivals, including Taco Fest II. The band went on a temporary Hiatus around the end of 2011 because of transportation issues, and Shawn Broussard starting his family with his Fiancee and newborn baby girl. In the time of the six month hiatus, Josh Miller left the band for personal reason's, and on the look for a new drummer we found Albert Falgout. His style and technique brought The Mothercell in a new direction and after reviewing our original setlist, cutting a few songs, and incorporating new things into The Mothercell, we are now on a pursuit of bigger, louder, energy packed shows with an occasional spurt of woodchips and fried equipment. We don't do it for the money, the facebook likes, the fandom. In a way, this band saves us, from the trouble, the worry, and hardship in our lives, and get's left for a moment off that stage, and reborn into the passion we put into everything we have for our performance. We believe in screaming till you can't breath anymore, to long night drives, thousands of feet of tangled cables that can't seem to end, to ducktaped lizard men, large black families completely plastered begging for one more song, instruments being used as hack saws, houses of amps, and stealing all the cookies from Albert's snack stash in his room during practice. This, is The Mothercell.
