Shotmaker was a Canadian post-hardcore/emo group formed in 1993 by Matt Deline, Tim McKeough and Nick Pye Belleville and Ottawa, Ontario.
[4] From their first 7" (pulled due to unauthorized use of the cover photo) to their final LP, Shotmaker's success lies in the intermingling of explosive riffs and complex, flowing rhythms, creating tensions best exhibited in Table, where tempos and time signatures shuffle in and out at break-neck speed.
The trio approach catchy on 10/22/94, and an untitled instrumental track on their final album includes nothing but acoustic guitar played over radio frequency white noise.
Shotmaker's members went on to play in such bands as the short lived 30 Second Motion Picture, Three Penny Opera, and The Grey.
In October 2023, the band release of "a moment in time: 1993-1996", a Curated 3xLP box set on transparent green, blue, and purple vinyl.
