Diesel Boy is a pop-punk rock band from Santa Rosa, California. They were formed in 1993, were active until 2002, and became active again in 2011. They have a 7" on Fat Wreck Chords, 4 full-length albums released on Honest Don's Records and a split EP with the band Divit that was released on Coldfront Records.

According to Last.fm, Diesel Boy's most popular tracks are "Titty Twister", "Looks That Kill" (Mötley Crüe cover), "She's My Queen" and "Stroking My Cat".

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 7. Cock Rock would be their debut full length, released on Honest Don's Records, a partner label of Fat Wreck Chords, for which Diesel Boy was the flagship band. Their second album, Venus Envy (1998), marked the departure of drummer and original member, Mike (Baump) Schaus. Geoff (Lackey) Arcuri formerly of the Florida band Shyster joined Diesel Boy in late 1998. Ryan Greene produced all 4 albums.

The band toured relentlessly from 1995 to 2002. It is estimated that they played in 40 of the 50 U.S. states, every province in Canada (where it is arguable that the band enjoyed its biggest following), Europe for three times, and Australia. During this time they played with the likes of, but not limited to, No Use for a Name, NOFX, Good Riddance, The Vandals, Strung Out, SNFU, Gob, The Goober Patrol,The Ataris, Satanic Surfers, and The Sugar Hill Gang.
