 Risque & Rockin'!! - An Overlooked New Wave Treasure! September 11, 2002
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I just wanted to set the record straight... Killer Pussy was one of the biggest local New Wave bands in Phoenix back in the 80's. Featuring the outlandish costumes and stage exploits of lead chanteuse, Lucy LaMode, they released several independent singles and EP's, but this Bikini Wax LP, originally released on vinyl in 1982, was their defining work. The single, "Teenage Enema Nurses in Bondage", was picked up and played in high rotation as a "signature song" by KROQ in Los Angeles, causing it to be "name-checked" in Bret Easton Ellis' novel "Less Than Zero" which glamorized the fast-living California drug and sex culture in the 80's and was later made into a movie. Killer Pussy played showcase concerts in California and NYC and hobnobbed with a who's who of punk rock and new wave stars back in the day, but never got the recognition and backing they so richly deserved and alas, this recording is all that remains of their legacy. Check out the song titles shown above... killer, boppin' tunes with snotty guitars, new wave keyboards and sexy Betty Boop-style vocals make this a guilty pleasure you won't want to take out of the CD player.

This may not have been much of a commercial success, but it still has a lot of great punk. Throughout the years, Bikini Wax has graced many a mixed tape of mine. I strongly reccomend checking this out.

I have the LP of this recording along with there EP, It's great punk and a bit nasty Too, but there's nothing wrong with that. It's great fun to listen too, so don't that everything so serious

Yep. Puerile, juvenile, at turns great fun, at turns lame...eh, er.. Punk. Still, you can beat "Bikini Wax Walk" for a feel-good instrumental piece of genius. It'll have you up and dancing in ten seconds flat. Someone should do a remix or extended version. Click on the audio sample and hear for yourself.

It is my belief that everything about this band and this CD is "Killer!" Lucy LaMode is not only way cool...She's way hot. These guys and doll blew into the punk scene and added a dash of avante garde to the vibe, much as Lady Miss Kier would do years later. I remember the day Rodney Bingenheimer of "Rodney On The Rock" back in the good 'ol days of KROQ introduced all of us in the Valley to this much underrated and undiscovered band. Funny how Killer Pussy's music still holds up and inspires people today. Just ask "The Donnas!" Yeah!!!
