Artist description "Jersey Whore", not for it's prostitute sentiment, but for the four years huddled around a propane heater in a rodent infested garage, living the rock and roll dream in a place of splendor that only New Jersey can offer. The band does not concern themselves with music formats or current trends, but to play rock and roll the way it was intended, from good ol' fashioned guts. Like the first CD, the same "do it yourself" approach went into creating "Jersey Whore" with all four guys taking a stab at engineer/ production duties, keeping "Jersey Whore" straight up and direct to the punch, no studio magic or third party interpretations of their songs. With the same heart and intensity of Dennis' raw vocals and thunderous bass, Doc's blistering guitar, and Steve's pounding drums, the obvious difference is the song writing, musicianship and addition of Jack on guitar. "Kelvinator" captured the early raw beginnings, "Jersey Whore" is a little more mature, a little more bitter, wet in some places, but still raw and relentlessly rock and roll. "Jersey Whore" is as much a celebration of 383 STROKER as the band is a celebration of New Jersey.
