20 Dollar Love sweats Rock & Roll. They play raunchy, blues soaked, punk rock boogie, that can entice even the most prudish of music listeners to shake a pair (butt cheeks that is) on the dance floor. With an arsenal of riffs paying homage to the likes of Ted Nugent, The MC5, The Stooges, Cactus, and ZZ Top, 20 Dollar Love’s music harkens back to a simpler time.
High Dr. was tracked live to 2” tape at Signaturetone studios in Minneapolis. The album has a very live, natural rock sound. Outboard effects & overdubs were used sparingly, and the result is a simply produced sonic bombast that captures raw energy and emotion. No digital interference happened until the album was mastered for CD.
The art was done by the world famous poster artist Dave Witt (Dwitt). Dwitt’s drawn and printed posters for Slayer, HankIII, High on Fire, Chuck Palahniuk, Anthony Bourdain, Dillinger 4, and Danzig. He also provided artwork for Guitar Hero II, and the nationally published book “The Art of Modern Rock”.
Enjoy some reviews:
"Like an unholy cross between Ted Nugent, the Cramps and Motörhead -- some seriously butt-kicking, attitude-spewing rock 'n' roll, in other words -- 20 Dollar Love kicks out its second album and first for Crustacean Records, "High Dr.," with a release party tonight at the Triple Rock. The trio's growling frontman Nate Pischke pretty well sounds fixated on getting it on, in libidinous songs such as the title track and "The New National Anthem." He deserves as much with all the swagger and sweat he poured into it."--Chris Riemenschneider, Star Tribune
"Sometimes when hard rock bands stretch into the prog rock deal it dilutes the real meaning behind rock and roll. 20 Dollar Love, don't play it fancy or try to hard to find the most complex guitar and bass passage, they play it real. Hard rock with grit and determination. If your looking to have a good time, drink some beers and shake your fist a bit they are perfect."--Rich Horton, Rift Magazine
"No bullshit. 20 Dollar Love are a trio from Minnesota that plays good humored, hard rockin’ boogie ‘n’ roll, built from the blocks of raunchy, blues based rock. Ted Nugent, Aerosmith, AC/DC, The Stooges, all that good shit. It’s hip shakin’ stuff, played to make the ladies work up a sweat and get the fellas rowdy. I’ll bet bars sell a whole lot of booze during their live sets. The band play well off of one another, sounding like three bodies attached to the same mother brain."--Ari Jaffe, Transformonline.
