"Kentucky Breakdown" gets TOP RATING from LowCut zine!
Review: HOT FUCKIN' DAMN!!! I was beyond ecstatic when I heard Blaine (Nashville Pussy) and singer Scott Luallen toured last year with a reformed Nine Pound Hammer, one of my ALL time fave punk'n'roll combos. And fortunately it sounds like not one day have passed since their 1994 masterpiece "Hayseed Timebomb". "Kentucky Breakdown" is burstin' with fast, fucked-up and furious countrypunk redneck anthems about crazy women, alcohol, guns, shitty jobs and violence (all delivered with tongue firmly in cheek). Blaine's buzzsaw guitar molestin' has never been rougher and more raw sounding, and Scott's awesome 'good old boy' southern vocals connects it all so perfectly that it (almost) made me forgot the shitty weather and program at Roskilde 2004. Songs like "Dead Dog Highway", "Rub Yer Daddy's Lucky Belly", "Don't Remember Lovin' You Last Night", "Go-3-Go" and "Chicken Hi, Chicken Lo" are pure fuckin' therapy for an ol' angry rock'n'roll boozehound like me! By the way, the album kicks off with a delirious intro from Sam Peckinpah's classic gore western "The Wild Bunch", what more do you want?? BUY OR I WILL KILL YOUR ASS, MOTHERFUCKER!!!!
