The band was formed in summer 1993, and soon after the world was introduced to their clever use of puns with their 7" release on Fat Wreck Chords, aptly titled Strap on Seven Inch, with four tracks, the first of which was "Titty Twister".
During this time they played with the likes of No Use for a Name, NOFX, Good Riddance, The Vandals, Strung Out, SNFU, Gob,[5] The Ataris, Satanic Surfers, and The Sugar Hill Gang.
Strung Out took them on their first U.S./Canada tour which followed the buzz created by appearance of the band's instant classic "Titty Twister", on the Fat Wreck Chords compilation Survival of the Fattest.
Diesel Boy appears, as a band, while performing their own material from the Cock Rock album, on an episode of Freaks and Geeks called "Moshing and Noshing" that aired in 2000.
[8] Several songs were composed, but due to the geographic difficulties (Diesel Dave was based in Seattle whereas the other members were in California), as well as family reasons, the band was not able to complete the album.
