Rude,
lude and crude. Nashville Pussy has become an underground favorite
with their "fuck you" attitude and garage rock sound.
To me the sound is a lot more universal than they are. It's
about as strait-up rock as you can get, with elements of classic
rock mixed with some modern aggression. There is nothing fancy
about this band, unless you think having 2 chicks in the band
is just to get attention. If you do think that you're stupid,
and even if that were the case, they're pretty fucking smart
in my book!
Bottom line is that Ruyter Suys' guitar-work stands up with
the guys any day. It's not her solos or how fast she plays,
it's the style and old-school approach she takes. It's the same
with Blaine Cartwright's vocals. There's very little melody
or even "singing" in the traditional sense, but he
has "style" that's just pours out sweat and sleaze.
"From
Hell To Texas" is another ass-kicking chapter for the band.
It has a consistent Western theme that makes it sound like the
albums of the 60's and 70's. It was recorded on tape, so if
you're listening to it on shitty computer speakers you are NOT
going to get the full sound. You need a big system where you
can really crank the fucker up. It literally sounds better the
louder it gets. I should mention if you are looking for a flawlessly
produced and clean sounding album, you're not going to get it
here. You will get a real soundling album that sounds live,
just without the crowd noise.
If
you have yet to discover the band, you need to finally get on
board and check out Nashville Pussy. I don't give a shit what
you're into, Rock, Metal or God forbid new Country, you'll get
a kick out of the band because they'll kick your ass!
