Not since the Butthole Surfers has a band with such an inauspicious name released a record that lives up to it's moniker. Nashville Pussy's recipe of speedball punk and heavy metal volume is a lethal concoction. Add a pinch of circus sideshow stage antics and you have trouble on yer hands. Be very afraid. This CD single has four very different mixes of the same track.
Life is good.
Archie Roach has continued to produce nice, acoustically based, tight tunes for three albums now. His southern, smoky delivery is a perfect frame for a truly unique pop voice. You can hear the influences of Sam Cooke, Ray Charles and a host of gospel-rooted performers. Roach is a very honest performer who went halfway 'round the world for this effort. Recorded with a very live sound in Australia, Roach owes a debt to his producer, Malcolm Burn, for stretching straight-ahead music and not caving commercial.
