Nashville Pussy - Say Something Nasty (Artemis Records) Review By Scott, live 4 metal
Considering that I haven’t listened to Nashville Pussy’s previous albums, I can be completely objective and review Say Something Nasty for what it is: kick-ass, whiskey-soaked, nicotine-stained, Nugent-meets-Skynyrd-meets-early-Stones-meets- AC/DC HARD ROCK!!!! Damn, this one felt good! It just breaks my heart to think that there are kids watching MTV right now who don’t know about Nashville Pussy.
Say Something Nasty is 13 tracks of rip-snorting, sleazy rock n roll, plus an intro about pussy as a lyrical topic and an instrumental outro. The title track, “Gonna Hitchhike Down to Cincinnati and Kick the Shit out of your Drunk Daddy” (yes, it’s an actual title), and
“You Give Drugs a Band Name” had me thinking of the best moments of Ted Nugent’s Cat Scratch Fever and AC/DC’s Powerage. Throw in a little Lynyrd Skynyrd, Pat Travers and early-to-mid 70s Rolling Stones and you’ve got Nashville Pussy. That’s a lethal combination, boys and girls. Hell, there’s even a cover of Rick Derringer’s “Rock N Roll Hoochie Coo.” I couldn’t think of a better song for this co-ed band to cover. Nashville Pussy even knows how to weave mystery and subtlety into their song titles - check out “Keep on Fuckin,” “Here’s to your Destruction,” and “Jack Shack.” Get it?
There’s hope for this generation yet, thanks to Nashville Pussy. In the words of Ted Nugent: “Anybody wants to get mellow, you can turn around and get the fuck outta here!!” I think I’ve said enough.
