Chris Motionless loves music. When we toured with Slipknot a few years ago, Corey Taylor would just sit down and hang out. Since then, Motionless have gradually evolved away from their metalcore roots across the course of six albums, with Chris himself becoming a sometimes reluctant figurehead for an army of fans. Their latest album, Scoring The End Of The World , mirrors the chaos, uncertainty, desperation and anger of the times.

We actually felt creatively stunted to a degree with our touring schedule and stuff, so the pandemic kind of opened it up to feel like we could do whatever we want it. You still live in Scranton, Pennsylvania, which is where you grew up.

What kind of town is it?

I just wanted to travel and play music. She took care of the three of us, which is arguably the hardest job in the world. I was very close to my mom, very close to my siblings. My dad owns his own company - he does concrete flooring, like inside of industrial warehouses. He worked a lot. Did you help him out? I spent many years of my life grinding concrete edges, mixing all kinds of polyurethanes.

That was my first job.
