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 straightforward 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. DAVE CLIFFORD Wilamette Week, Portland OR, November 16, 2005
