Revved up, stripped down, revved right the heck back up again! We bring it and leave it right there on the carpet!
Motorama plays revved up rock 'n roll stripped down to the most basic elements of melody, rhythm, volume and intensity. Motorama's sound is exceptionally unique and honest, and has been likened to the Jesus Lizard, Steel Pole Bathtub, Cherubs, the Who, Motorhead, Didjits etc.
"This is great music to experience live. Heavy, fast, and loud, it bursts at the seams with energy and intensity"
Upcoming Motorama performances!
Saturday, April 19th at Pat's Pub with Dirty and the Derelicts
Wednesday, May 14th at the Anza Club, Dave Bose's Birthday Bash

Motorama, Teenage Frames, The Nightmares, The Ones - Friday, November 18th, 2005 at Sabala's at Mount Tabor
[PUNK] Motorama is one of those bands inadvertently trapped between genres -- an occurance that tends to have interesting results.
The Vancouver, BC trio contends that its inspiration comes from heavy, fast and loud noise-rock in the tradition of Jesus Lizard and Cherubs. However, the songs on Motorama's self-released Supercustomspecial sound much more like a meeting of starightforward punk like DOA and the slinking sinister mellow songs of Steel Pole Bathtub than they do a full-bore math-rock assault. But it's these peculiar results that make Motorama far more interesting.
