Portland Oregon's Dad Works Hard is trashy, disco infused hard rock with all of the shouting, kicking, and beer can crushing that goes with it. These guys are a product of a garage in the Kenton district of North Portland. Picture neon signs, dirty ashtrays with strange residue in them, ageing retirees playing video lottery, and police sirens after a night of a little too much rocking. There's no irony here, they're about as genuine as it gets. Rock from the early 70's and 80's mixed with smoother rock finished with harder rock and topped with trucker speed, the sound is reminiscent of old topless cars, topless drunks, and the sort of record your dad put on the turntable when Bill and Jeff came over for another night of what he and your mom used to fight about. Hard working class music for hard working class Americans, Dad Works Hard is the band that should have been playing when Patrick Swayze beat the snot out of Jimmy in Roadhouse.
