    About this album

    Shock finds The Motels sharpening their new wave sound into something leaner, colder and more immediate. Released in 1985, the album pushes Martha Davis’s distinctive voice and songwriting into a brighter synth-pop and pop rock setting, giving the band a tighter commercial edge without losing its restless mood. Built on direct melodies, electronic textures and nervy guitar accents, it reflects the mid-1980s crossover between rock and polished radio pop. The title track and songs such as State Of The Heart helped define the record’s appeal, making Shock one of the band’s most polished and accessible releases.
