Nashville Pussy
Spearheading the late-‘90s underground sleaze-rock scene, Nashville Pussy (named for a comment in Ted Nugent’s Double Live Gonzo) rose in 1996 from the ashes of Kentucky cowpunk band Nine Pound Hammer. Guitarist/songwriter Blaine Cartwright and drummer Adam Neill (soon replaced by Jeremy Thompson) decided to indulge their fetish for KISS, Motorhead, AC/DC, and the like, adding a touch of ‘60s garage rock and a Southern wardrobe. Cartwright’s wife, guitarist Ruyter Suys, was in from the beginning, and statuesque, flamboyant bass-player Corey Parks rounded out the lineup. While Cartwright worked up a repertoire of drawling psychobilly guitar rock to go with covers of songs from like-minded groups like Teengenerate and Devil Dogs, Parks practiced her fire-breathing skills. Soon they were ready for the road, and they became known for both a blistering live show (including Parks’ incendiary stagecraft) and their punishing tour schedule, an average of 250 or so shows a year. After three self-released singles were snapped up, NP entered the studio with Fastbacks guitarist Kurt Bloch and emerged with its 1998 full-length debut, Let Them Eat Pussy (Amphetamine Reptile). Soon the band had signed to A&R whiz Tom Zutaut’s Enclave label, which by then was an imprint of Mercury Records. A re-release of Let Them Eat Pussy followed, surprisingly enough earning a Grammy nomination in the Heavy Metal category for the track “Fried Chicken and Coffee” (not bad for a record that took less than a week to record). Then merger-mania hit Polygram, Mercury’s parent company, and Nashville Pussy were back on the block. TVT snapped up the outrageous, flame-spewing quartet, and they re-enlisted Bloch as knob-twiddler for their second record, High as Hell, which appeared in May 2000.

Nitro-burnin' southern rock with AC/DC and Motorhead stickers plastered to the back bumper.
Nashville Pussy	Piece of Ass	WinMedia	Rock
Nashville Pussy may be one of the great live acts of our time, but you wouldn't know it from this in-concert rendition of their ninety-second Marxist manifesto, which is totally hamstrung by a lousy mix.
Nashville Pussy	Wrong Side Of the Gun	MP3	Metal
A backwoods-metal ode to firearms from one of the feistiest foursomes in rock n' roll.
