| 2.5 average | Robbit | September 13th 18 | The Motels promising run during the early 80s ended rather abruptly with the overly glossy SHOCK album. The punkier guitar fueled edges of their earlier work had been buffed away for these rather formulaic synth and drum machine dominated production which was so en vogue during this era. Martha Davis still offers impassioned and characteristically melodramatic vocal performances along with several reasonably good songs ("Shock", "Shame" and "Icy Red"). Almost a good record, but something of a disappointment overall.
