SWEARING AT MOTORISTS - 31 Seasons In The Minor Leagues - CD [NOV 14]

CD 

Probably the first album to be written and recorded entirely in a Bundesliga soccer stadium, namely the Millerntor Stadium of football team St. Pauli in Hamburg. Don’t worry, it doesn’t sound like stadium rock at all. Quite the opposite in fact…Lo-fi without being brittle and minimal without feeling sparse.

11 years later, the band re-resurfaced in Hamburg Germany, from another hiatus and with another new album, 31 Seasons In The Minor Leagues, self produced at a studio located in Millerntor Stadion, Hamburg. Interestingly, Doughman has a unique connection to FC St. Pauli, the famed football club from Hamburg. His admiration for the club reflects his passion for underdog stories and authentic outsider spirit elements that are woven into the fabric of his music. Obviously the album title mirrors this. It's about holding on to dreams (or illusions) even when success fails to materialise. The "31 Seasons" could allude to a whole life full of attempts, setbacks, and small triumphs. Critically acclaimed yet definitely under the radar, Swearing At Motorists remains a beloved staple of indie rock's underground-now roaring back to the stage with new stories to tell.
