Editing Motherhead Bug (section)

==Band history==
Ouimet had earlier founded industrial rock group [[Cop Shoot Cop]], and Lee was a member of blues rockers [[Railroad Jerk]].

The group was rather large, featuring three [[drummer]]s, as well as [[string instruments|string]] and [[horn section]]s, with [[accordion]]s, [[xylophone]]s and other unusual instruments featured prominently. The music is somewhat similar to [[Tom Waits]]' post-''[[Swordfishtrombones]]'', but also touched on [[music hall]] songs, [[nursery rhymes]], [[marching band]]s, and earned comparisons to the [[Penguin Cafe Orchestra]].

Motherhead Bug released only two singles and one full-length album, 1993's ''[[Zambodia]]'', recorded by Brooklyn-based producer [[Martin Bisi]]. The album was dedicated to saxophonist [[Masami Shinoda]]. One critic described ''[[Zambodia]]''  as follows: "The instrumentation and Ouimet's theatrical vocals lend a [[decadent]] grandeur to [[Kurt Weill|Weill]]-esque numbers like 'Demon Erection' and 'My Sweet [[Military Strategic and Tactical Relay satellite|Milstar]].' It may be [[burlesque]], but it's still pretty scary stuff."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://trouserpress.com/reviews/cop-shoot-cop/|title=Cop Shoot Cop|website=Trouserpress.com|accessdate=8 September 2020}}</ref>
