Swearing At Motorists is a two-piece rock and roll band composed of Dave Doughman (guitar, vocals, etc.) and a drummer (previously Joseph Siwinski). They formed in Dayton, Ohio in 1994, releasing their self-titled debut cassette in 1995. Joseph Siwinski replaced Don Thrasher (formerly of Guided by Voices), who had originally been on drums. Critics have referred to Swearing At Motorists as “The Two Man Who”, a nickname bestowed upon the band by Cheetah Chrome of the Dead Boys. Their albums are a combination of rock and love songs that portray 'a character at the mercy of his own destiny'. The Swearing At Motorists song, "Flying Pizza", named after a Dayton pizzeria, details an unpleasant encounter with an old acquaintance. Swearing At Motorists' concerts have involved antics such as Doughman tearing the strings out of his guitar mid-song and jumping offstage, as well as comedic anecdotes relayed between, and sometimes within, songs. The band has toured the United States and Europe several times. From 2000 - 2011 all of their records were released by Bloomington, Indiana label Secretly Canadian. In 2014 Austrian label Siluh Records released their 7" ep Burn Down The Wire. On February 8, 2014, the band successfully funded the production & manufacturing of their newest album, While Laughing, The Joker Tells The Truth, via Kickstarter. Frontman Dave Doughman has challenged The White Stripes to a contest of who can put on a better show, but has never received a reply.〔http://discover.drownedinsound.com/news/5155〕 ==Discography== * ''Swearing At Motorists'' (CD) - 1995 * ''Tuesday's Pretzel Night'' (EP) - 1996 * ''The Fear of Low-Flying Clouds'' (LP) - 1997 * ''Enough Drama and The Way Things Are'' (EP) - 1997 * ''More Songs From the Mellow Struggle'' (CD) - 2000 * ''Stumble to the Zero Hour'' (EP) - 2000 * ''Number Seven Uptown'' (LP) - 2000 * ''The Burnt Orange Heresy'' (EP) - 2000 * ''Along the Inclined Plane'' (EP) - 2002 * ''This Flag Signals Goodbye'' (LP) - 2002 * ''Last Night Becomes This Morning'' (LP) - 2006 * ''Exile on Gipsstraße'' (LP) - 2006 * ''Postcards From A Drinking Town (collected singles '96-'02)'' (LP) - 2011 * ''Burn Down The Wire'' (EP) - 2014 * ''While Laughing, The Joker Tells The Truth'' (LP) - 2014 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Swearing at Motorists」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
