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

Chris Walter:
After many years on the Vancouver bar circuit, Motorama has finally released a CD, and after trying out almost everyone in town as a vocalist, Marcus has apparently decided to do the sumbitch himself. I get a good gargey vibe from Supercustomspecial and while Mr. Marcus is unlikely to win any Vocalist of the Year awards, he does alright, reminding me at times of Dan from the Insipids (he said, referencing a long defunct Vancouver punk band who most people have never heard of). This is straightforward, beer drinkin' rock music, with one foot firmly on the accelerator - no frills, and no bullshit. I'm glad to see that Motorama decided to step up to the plate. Now that wasn't so tough, was it? - Chris Walter The Nerve, August 2005, Vol.6 No.8, Issue #52
