Smoochknob

Smoochknob is led by drummer-vocalist and founder Donnie Rife. Formerly drummer - singer for the legendary Midwest band The Blue Meanies. He formed Smoochknob (reference to Midwest slang for a suicide knob on steering wheel on a car) Shortly after he moved from Iowa City, IA to Portland, OR.

His catchy tongue-in-cheek songs garner comparisons to similarly infectious and clever punky bands like Weezer and Presidents of the U.S.A.

Calling his music Gay-core; Rife's Elton John on Rivers Cuomo stylings offer lyrics with truly intelligent and subversive social commentary. The band's forthcoming album, Jr. High Anthems, is scheduled for release fall of 2010.
