LA-bred Cinderella MOTEL combines the eclectic madness of 70âs punk, the amped-up attitude of garage rock, and the sly sensibilities of 80âs pop to create an outfit never seen around the LA scene, at least not like this. CM creates a captivating wave of sound by melting eccentric audio arrangements, breakneck tempo changes, and subversively carnal and profoundly whimsical lyrics with JFRâs wailing guitars, Guerreroâs thunderous drum chops, Roblesâ thick-filled bass licks, and Tomahawkâs full-force growling, howling yet lady-like vocals, crunchy rhythm guitar, and occasional punk-styled accordion.
CMâs first full-length release bolts straight out the gate with the bombastic title track âAutomatic Pleasure.â With songs like the horns-in-the-air, Sabbath-invoking âClearance Valentine,â the accordion-laced, punk barn burner âPut It Outâ and the hedonistic pleasure anthem âYou Were Never My Boyfriend (So Letâs Dance),â Cinderella MOTEL provides the soundtrack for all of us who want to live life with the knob cranked to eleven.
The album was recorded at The Cave Studio in LA by LightFM frontman Josiah Mazzaschi (William Reid-The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Blood Arm, Built to Spill) and mastered by Jon Drew in Toronto (Metric, F**ked Up, Tokyo Police Club).
Basically, if Iggy, Joan Jett, The Kills and Peaches had a baby backed by the Sioux nation, you'd have Cinderella MOTEL.

âCinderella Motelâs thrashy old-school squalor owes a huge debt to black-dressed songstresses of the past â fans of Siouxsie Sioux and Joan Jett, take note â with frontwoman Tammy Tomahawk juggling guitar and accordion and howling at ghosts wearing studded belts and leather collars. Or maybe theyâre not ghosts at all. The quartet, working on a full-length scheduled for a fall release, features thundering rhythms from bassist Dustin Robles and drummer Raul Guerrero, and appropriately shreddy licks from lead guitarist Janice Reid. L.A. once thrived on a steady diet on a steady diet of post-punk like Cinderella Motelâs; now we have only occasional side dishes to make you scream like a banshee.â âKevin Bronson, Buzzbands.la
