Teenage Bottlerocket is an American punk rock band formed in Laramie, Wyoming, United States, in 2001.
The band was formed by twin brothers Ray and Brandon Carlisle, following the dissolution of their previous band, Homeless Wonders, in 2000. Their music is heavily influenced by co-singer/guitarist Kody Templeman's other band, The Lillingtons, and punk rock acts such as Screeching Weasel, The Ramones, Bouncing Souls, and Misfits.
On November 7, 2015, drummer Brandon Carlisle died unexpectedly after a brief hospitalization.
History
Originally consisting of Ray (bass/vocals), Brandon (drums), and Zach Doe (guitar), the band released their debut EP A Bomb on a Laramie communal label, One Legged Pup, and distributed through Lost Cat Records, in 2002. Soon after, Doe left and went back to Chicago, leaving the twins without a guitarist until they found University of Wyoming Music Major Joel Pattinson. In 2003 they wrote and recorded their first full-length LP Another Way, also released on One Legged Pup. The release was vinyl only (the first 500 on pink vinyl), released on Halloween night 2003. The band continued to play and promote numerous local shows, even landing some opening spots in Laramie with All and The Ataris. The band was to embark on a short summer tour of the midwest in 2004. When Pattinson couldn't make the trip due to his obligations to the University Orchestra, the Carlisles called up their old friend Kody Templeman to play guitar on the tour. The tour went well, and they ended up playing some of the new songs that Kody had written. By the end of the tour, he was a permanent member of the band, although he has continued living in his hometown of Newcastle, 246 miles away from the rest of the band.

I wanna be a dog I wanna lay around all day
Don’t want to be part of the stupid games that people play
I wanna be a dog throw all my cares away
Can’t wait for you to get back home so that we can play
I wanna be a dog, a dog
I wanna be a dog you can teach me how to beg
I’ll lick my balls and then when you get home I’ll hump your leg
I wanna be a dog just don’t be cruel to me
Don’t want to be in one of those commercials on tv
I’ll always curl up by your side when I’ve seen all...

I knocked down a tree with my bare hands
And I've been to all four corners of this land
I killed a giant spider with an iron sword
And I ran ten miles being chased by a zombie hoard
They call me Steve, I'll do anything you want me to
They call me Steve, I'll dig a hole to hell and back for you
I built a giant mansion in a mountain side
And it's fully furnished with a pool and water slide
But late at night the creepers walk me home
But I don't mind I'm getting used to spending nights alone
They call me Steve, I'll do anything you want me to
They call me Steve, I'll dig a hole to hell and back for you
I don't know what to do cause me and Steve are really missing you ...

Almost twenty years ago went someplace you shouldn't go
In a house up on a hill on a dare and for a thrill
Basically it's suicide once you step one foot inside
This house where lots of people died and currently reside
Things start floating round the room. This ain't no house, more like a tomb
Being here ain't very nice, keep thinking we’ll see Vincent Price
Hidden rooms and creepy halls, blood starts dripping down the walls
Portraits hung with moving eyes and what’s with all these fucking flies
I hear the werewolf bark, eyes start glowing in the dark
I got to get out of this haunted house haunted house
The lights go out then come back on, another guest is gone, this

In a house up on a hill on a dare and for a thrill
Basically it's suicide once you step one foot inside
This house where lots of people died and currently reside
Things start floating round the room. This ain't no house, more like a tomb
Being here ain't very nice, keep thinking we’ll see Vincent Price
Hidden rooms and creepy halls, blood starts dripping down the walls
Portraits hung with moving eyes and what’s with all these fucking flies
I hear the werewolf bark, eyes start glowing in the dark
I got to get out of this haunted house haunted house

Teenage Bottlerocket is an American punk rock band formed in Laramie, Wyoming, United States, in 2001.
The band was formed by twin brothers Ray and Brandon Carlisle, following the dissolution of their previous band, Homeless Wonders, in 2000. Their music is heavily influenced by co-singer/guitarist Kody Templeman's other band, The Lillingtons, and punk rock acts such as Screeching Weasel, The Ramones, Bouncing Souls, and Misfits.
On November 7, 2015, drummer Brandon Carlisle died unexpectedly after a brief hospitalization.
