Nashville Pussy New Album “Say Something Nasty”

– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

Download this one song from the new album and drive fast to your local record store.
(updated by ~mc~ on 7/28/17 – goddamn time flies – and Nashville Pussy is still rocking it all over the world!)


Say Something Nasty is the new Artemis album by Nashville Pussy. Not surprisingly, NP singer/guitarist Blaine Cartwright declares in no uncertain terms that, “It’s our best one yet!”

But Blaine’s words are-to quote John Lee Hooker-“no brag, just facts.” This 15-track set of raunchy, high-voltage Southern guitar rock features the best songs and sharpest production yet from this Georgia-based quartet. Say Something Nasty includes such hilarious, hard-rocking originals as “You Give Drugs a Bad Name,” “Keep Them Things Away From Me,” “Beat Me Senseless,” and “Gonna Hitchhike Down to Cincinnati And Kick The Shit Outta Your Drunk Daddy.”

To record Say Something Nasty, Blaine explains, “we went back to Glasgow, Kentucky and worked with [producer] David Barrick. I knew him from my old band, Nine-Pound Hammer. David runs a small studio with big-time machines. He installed the board, he engineered all the sessions-he’s the whole show! He’s worked with a lot of up-and-coming bands, doing demos, and also with Kentucky Headhunters and with Bernie Worrell.”

The entire album took less than three weeks to track and mix. “Glasgow is in a dry county, which kept everyone concentrated,” notes Blaine. “It’s impossible to score any weed, and the nearest beer is 30 miles away. You can’t even buy a Playboy magazine! So the only place to go every day was the studio.”

Say Something Nasty contains 11 new songs written by Blaine Cartwright, although “I credit everybody because of their contributions.” Two other standouts are “Beat Me Senseless,” recorded for a Circle Jerks tribute album, and a blazing take on Johnny Winter’s “Rock & Roll Hoochie Koo.” “Say Something Nasty,” “Can’t Get Rid Of It,” and “Gonna Hitchhike Down To Cinicinnati And Kick The Shit Outta Your Drunk Daddy” also appear on a 3 song sampler that is being serviced to metal and rock specialty radio.

Formed in 1996, the current lineup of Nashville Pussy features Kentucky-born singer/guitarist Blaine Cartwright, lead guitarist Ruyter Suys (pronounced “Rider Sighs”), drummer Jeremy “Remo” Thompson, and bassist Katie Lynn Campbell a/k/a “Vampire Girl.” The band’s debut album, Let Them Eat Pussy, was released on Amphetamine Reptile in 1998 and later picked up by Mercury Records for national distribution. A track from that album entitled “Fried Chicken and Coffee” was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance. Nashville Pussy’s second disc, High As Hell, was released in 2000 on TVT Records. Two cuts from High As Hell – “Wrong Side of A Gun” and “Shoot First and Run Like Hell” – were featured in the film Super Troopers and on the soundtrack album.

This is one “people’s band” that has garnered some surprisingly favorable press. Philadelphia’s City Paper called Nashville Pussy “arguably the funniest, raunchiest, most kick-ass group in rock today.” The Orange County Weekly wrote: “Nashville Pussy [are] a guilty pleasure-swaggering, menacing, hedonistic, riveting-yet they don’t come off as contrived�Part of their potency, no doubt, is that they’ve got excellent musicianship to back up the glimmer.”

For nearly six years, Nashville Pussy has virtually lived on the road. “Out of the last six months, we’ve been home for about three weeks,” says Blaine. “We don’t go home!” They’ve held their own in venues ranging from a Hell’s Angels festival in France to the 2000 “Tattoo the Earth” tour with Slipknot, Slayer, and Sevendust. During a European tour in the summer of 2001, the band managed the astonishing feat of playing four different European festivals within 40 hours.

Contrary to popular myth, the Nashville Pussy live experience does not include fire-breathing, live sex, or the open promotion and use of narcotics. (In the audience, maybe, but not on the stage.)

“All that stuff’s just a myth,” says Blaine with a chuckle. “It’s the kind of thing that always starts going around about any crazy, high-energy rock and roll show. When I was growing up, I heard that Alice Cooper killed puppies on stage. People swore they had seen this!”

“We just try to create a situation where you think anything can happen. We always have good shows in places like Indiana, where there’s nothing else to do.”

Perhaps the key line in Say Something Nasty comes from the anthemic, uproarious “Keep On’ Fucking,” in which Nashville Pussy declares, “you don’t have to be smart to understand.”

“That’s what this album and this band are really about,” declares Blaine Cartwright. “We rock for the stupid and the smart, and our audience runs the gamut every night. We’ll be closing with ‘Keep on Fucking’ for the next 20 years. We’re gonna shove this album up America’s ass!”[via Artemis Records]

Say Something Nasty comes out in Japan on July 24th with bonus tracks and will only be available thru the internet.[thanks countrystarr!]

BMF and Punkarella Review

A Review of Nashville Pussy Music by BMF and Punkarella

BMF says Fan Reviews are the Best Reviews

Following are his poignant instructions:

How to review a new album by your favorite band.

After you get the new fresh album in your hands spend at least a day listening to it from beginning to end
to absorb the goodness because you already know Nashville Pussy isn’t about to let you down. Read the
liner notes and look at the pictures. Then listen to it again while you get high but don’t think too much upon
it just yet … only enjoy it.

The next morning after you feel good and refreshed from a night of frivolity(purrrrrr…;)and during your
morning coffee put that fucker back into your stereo and turn it up. Sit down and start playing your favorite
PS2 motocross game right before you go to work and let the feelings fly. Song by song. Replay them over
and over if you need to.

Gather all your thoughts about the new album and post your review all over the internet and on your own great fan site like the Nashville Pussy Chronicles. Support your favorite band. Buy their music. Buy their
swag. Go see a show.

Road Trip!

In Lust We Trust

Blue Cat, Knoxville Tennessee

– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

Three pussies in the bathroom at Blue Cats in Knoxville last night during the Nebula set…

drunk and loud pussy #1 – “GODDAMN! I can’t even understand what they are singing!”

drunk and loud pussy #2 – “Yeah and we paid $12 apiece to get in here for this?”

drunk and calm pussy #3 – coming out of the stall, washing her hands, keeping quiet

pussy #1 to pussy #3 – “Can you understand anything those guys are singing? This sucks!”

pussy #3 to pussy #1 – (ignoring the question) “So I guess you’ve never been to a Nashville Pussy show?”

woman #1 – “No we never even heard of them before.”

woman #3 – (walking out) “hmmmm…then it won’t be much longer before you get your $12 worth.”

Later on during one of the best Nashville Pussy sets ever… the two disgruntled pussies were seen doing this…

Pussies #1&2 @ Nashville Pussy Show!
Pussies #1&2 @ Nashville Pussy Show!

I’d say Nashville Pussy won them over wouldn’t you? Rock and Roll Hoochie Cooooooooo!!!!!!

Ohhh there is much more to come about Nashville Pussy getting back on the road last night. They were so fired up! The Blue Cat is a great club…wish we had one like it in Atlanta. The sound seemed great to me cause my ears are still ringing. And nothing can get you more excited than pulling up to a club and seeing Harley’s lined up and down the street. NP has added more of their new songs to the setlist and it’s all tight. Blaine was in a great mood and his speeches are becoming legendary. Katie fits like a glove and is a perfect counterpart to Ruyter who is just the sexiest and sweetest little rocker ever. And the only thing we can say about Jeremy is he’s the best drummer in the best band.

By the way if you like headbanging music sorta like Black Sabbath you are going to love Nebula. I also think they should keep Dick Delicious on the road with them too. They turn it into the perfect triple musical extravaganza. Even if they have been tainted in a previous life by some fat ugly bitch with a big stinky pussy wearing a towel on her head. No they don’t wear masks in their act even if they should cause all the fat ugly girls are waiting for them with baseball bats after the show. Plus they caused me to worry Ozzy had actually died after their little tribute to him. But I have to forgive them cause they are good looking and cause they are just trying to cover up the fact they can really play that fucking music white boy.

Stay tuned. More thoughts and most importantly lots of pictures coming soon.

BMF! This is really fuckin’ cool!


– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

A lot of good things have come from the computer. You can get whatever information you need at a touch, you can communicate with people from all over the world, PORN…and best of all, it lets us taste the music. A while back when I was just a little innocent cyberrr girl I met a guy who would rip wavs from his collection of nasty punk rock music and send them to me. He admits at first he was just trying to shock me, but I loved those little wavs the most because I could hear him in the background along with the music. It turned me on and I wanted more. So he gave me more and he taught me how to make the wavs and his influence on me was great. He told me what music I needed to go get…so I went and got it, but I always liked it better when he gave the music to me. He knew so much about who was playing it, when they played it, what he thought they meant by playing it and he patiently explained it to me. He still does. And I fell in love with him.

Mainly cause he gave me my first taste of Nashville Pussy. :)~

He downloads everything. He’s like a fuckin suckin vacuum when it comes to wanting new music. So a while back I thought I’d give him a weekly burn list with at least one or two obscure songs to test him along with a BMF hidden track so he could surprise me. 🙂 And now it’s turned into a fun little project called Burn Baby Burn. You might have noticed the burn list updated weekly over there in the links. Last night he surprised me by making a oh so cool webpage that organizes the music on those burn lists. It lists what music he’s found and what he needs to complete each week’s burn, plus he’s made it just so damn easy for you to burn your own. So if you have any of the missing music…be sweet and share! 🙂 Later on we will list all the CD’s we bought to find some of this music. A lot of Nine Pound Hammer! And if you haven’t listened to Andre Williams … don’t delay and “Let Me Put It In” right now…

Oh yeah and look for the special AC/DC bonus list dedicated to Steve Stephens… who burned a tattoooo into his skin in tribute to Nashville Pussy! Now that’s rock and roll baby.

And remember … marijuana can be the backbone of creativity. So go get high and create something.

Burn Baby Burn #7

Did I miss anything?

– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

When you are away from home … this can remind you of loved ones.

Nashville Pussy leaves Cincinnati where they played at Bogart’s last night and will be at The Newport Music Hall in Columbus, Ohio tonight. They accept cash only? Then tomorrow they travel over to Pittsburgh to play Saturday night at the Metropol before heading back South for a week in Flordia. It seems a very tall band called Syrup will be playing third wheel on the Flordia part of the run with the Streetwalkin’ Cheetahs rejoining the tour once it heads back up to Atlanta.

That’s right…next Saturday they come back home to play in Atlanta. Hell yeah and allright.

Burn Baby Burn…Week #7

Nashville Pussy’s Day Off

WTF NY Review?

– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

It’s a day off for Nashville Pussy.

We are just sitting around watching Wrestlemania and wondering what the band does on their day off? Last night they played at the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C. and tomorrow night they headline a show in Morgantown, WV at the 123 with opening act Karma to Burn. They will rejoin the Reverend in Pennsylvania on Tuesday.

A sorta kinda review from a punk fan in New York:

“The Streetwalking Cheetahs played first. I remember liking their 7″,but after they started playing, i realized that it was because on the record, they were doing Cherry Bomb with Cherie Curry singing. They sucked.”

“It was packed by the time Nashville Pussy went on, and they were pretty good. With Corey gone, there’s no more girl/girl simulated sex, but they still have some good songs. And i made sure to tell everyone that i’ve made out with Ruyter. I’d still rather see them with George Tabb and 10 other people at the Continental at 2am(sidenote: George threw up in my car that night).”[author:DeanDTSM]

God Damn!

Nashville Pussy and The Streetwalkin Cheetahs along with White Devils will be playing at the Water Street Music Hall in Rochester NY while the Reverend Horton Heat stays in New York City so he can appear on Late Night with Conan O’ Brien tonight. I hope he plays “Galaxy 500“.

1995 The Jon Stewart Show playing “Yeah, Right” & “Big Sky”
1996 Conan O’Brien Show playing “Big Red Rocket of Love”
HBO’s “Mr. Saturday Night” playing “It’s Martini Time”

Wonder what song Nashville Pussy would play if they got invited to the Conan O’ Brien show? hmmm?

It’s Pussylicious

Say Something Nasty…

– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

BMF I guess we can call that pussy news. :)~

Nashville Pussy’s webmistress has really been cleaning house and making changes over at the official NP website. Spend some time on there and you will find out just how much information the site contains about our favorite band. Visit it often and buy some NP momentos like this bonus CD you can’t buy anywhere else. It is definitely a collector’s item for anybody who likes rock and roll whether you are a Nashville Pussy fan or not…but you better become one or we will personally come and fuck your ass up. :)~~

 

Thanks to Nashville Pussy and Country Starr for letting us set up the new message board…where the real pussylicious fans go to give some love. Since March 7, 2002 there have been 100 messages and 663 visitors to the board. (the pussylicious message board is long gone, but it was fun while it lasted! – 2/12/17 update-mc)

Gotta love Ruyter… “There were a handful of guys that distracted me from my playing. Way to go Canadian boys! If you’re good enough you can eat me out on stage through my pants, but don’t bite me. Plus you have to be a relatively good pussy eater to get to the latex barrier.” [via ChartAttack]

Nashville Pussy will be in New York City the next two nights for shows at Irving Plaza. The last time NP played there was in June 2000 as the headliners with Supersuckers, The Unband, and Speed Dealer opening up. VIVA LA VULVA!

Oh those New Yorkers say the funniest things:

“I’m not going to lie to you – this band scares me shitless. Cartwright and Thompson make the Dukes of Hazard look like Siegfried and Roy. Suys and Parks make Daisy Dukes look like my saggy-breasted high-school guidance counselor. The band plays like tripping square dancers with rabid rattlesnakes shoved up their ass. If you’re not down with the sleazy party, get out of the way lest Nashville Pussy bulldoze you into the street.”[via NY Rock]
