My Motor [Explicit Lyrics]

Editorial Reviews
About the Artist
"Cleeetuuuus, go git the hot water, I'm have'n a baybeee" squealed my mamma back in 1964. "And git me that sheepskin blanket, looks like I'ma havin' this kid right dang in this here patch of dorkweeds."

So, a star was born. Or, at least my mamma thought so. Cars and geetars, that's all I cared about growin' up.

As soon as I was old enough to realize my dream, I put together my own set of wheels and took myslef on the road with my songs. I made it all the way to Seattle and immediately recorded my first release "Send these shoes to Hell".

Me and my band started gaining recognition and airplay on local radio station, KCMU and appeared on the national college radio show, Joe's Blue Plate Special. Local and national publications wrote reviews on the album. EarBuzz.com, the online music magazine, wrote it was " a substantial artistic record - from start to finish. Excellent future classic-everyone should have this one."

This became the turning point where I began to focus on the style and approach for the next record. I hand picked two very talented local musicians, Martin (drums), and Forrest, (bass), to record our latest release. "My Motor" was released October 17, 2000 Skaky Records. The album also features guest appearances by members of Bicycle, Load Levelers, The Tremens and Dyke Van Dick.

Mamma's gonna be so proud.

Album Description
Indie Rock gone awry. Produced by the venerable Jeff Saltzman (formerly of Sunset Valley/ producer for The Standard/Jackpot Recording Studio producer/engineer,), this lyrically inventive release blends rowdy guitar-distorted alternative rock with moody and offbeat pop elements.

      I bought this album on the strength of a video of the title track I saw online. If you're into garage/R'N'B/rock'n'roll, you will not regret buying this album. From start to finish I was just awestruck! Take some Yardbirds/Animals/60s Rolling Stones, mix with some Headcoats/Milkshakes/Eddie Angel/Mummies/Monsters, finish with a gnarly punk topping, and you only might get close. Amazing!
      An absolute future classic that needs buying now!

          "My Motor", the latest album from Dorkweed, is nothing more than just great lyrics combined with expert musicianship. The result is a toe-tapping, head-rocking good time. Not many bands could come up with a song about a dying starfish. Nor has someone before had what it takes to express the desire to hurt Alanis Morisette again and again and again and again, and to make that sentiment entertaining. The sometimes off-the-wall lyrics are pure poetry in the context of each individual song. Together, the selections proclaim Dorkweed a future force in the music industry. This is definitely a CD that will receive a lot of play in your house and car.
