Faster Pussycat is a band that epitomizes the gritty, glam, and sleaze rock scene that erupted on the sunset strip in the late 1980s. Hailing from Los Angeles, California, they first clawed their way into the music industry with their self-titled debut album "Faster Pussycat" in 1987, establishing themselves with a raw and raunchy sound that resonated with fans of the hard rock genre. With Taime Downe at the vocal helm, the group quickly became known for their hedonistic lyrics and infectious rhythms.
Throughout their career, Faster Pussycat has maintained a rebellious and unapologetic identity. Their sophomore release, "Wake Me When It's Over", further solidified their place in the rock sphere with hits that underscored their signature sleaze rock sound. The album's success was followed by a series of releases that highlighted the band's evolution and adaptability, such as "Whipped" and the more industrial-tinged "The Power and the Glory Hole". Despite a hiatus and lineup changes, the band persevered and continued to showcase their raw musical prowess through live albums like "Front Row For The Donkey Show - Live" and a series of singles that kept their loyal fan base engaged. Faster Pussycat's legacy within the glam metal scene is undeniable, and they remain a quintessential example of the era's decadence and excess.
