Bio:
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"
Reggie, theBertman and Marcus have been playing together in Motorama since June, 2004.
Inspired by Rock, Garage, Punk, Metal and Hard Rock from the '50's to the present we create stripped down, loud, intense, energetic music ala Motorhead, Black Flag, AC/DC etc. and have been compared to Shellac, Jesus Lizard, Melvins, Drive Like Jehu, AC/DC - you get the gist.
We all start to go a little squirrelly if we don't play shows extremely regularly so we've been playing in the Pacific Northwest (BC, WA, OR) as much as possible and have toured most of the US and will continue to do so.
Our goals include: touring Europe and Asia; obtaining worldwide distribution for our recordings; and of course continuing to write the best goshdarn songs we possibly can.
We just finished a little tour around the US and are planning to hunker down for a couple of months and work on some kickass new songs and put out a brand new CD in June 2006.
We are 100% DIY - we do all of our own booking, recording, graphic design, driving, roadying, everything. Simply everything. We are also very active gig traders and whatnot, other bands have helped us with shows, places to stay, party favours and we in turn are more than happy to do the same anytime we can. We get by on the kindness of our friends and totally appreciate it and reciprocate it.
