Faster Pussycat

Faster Pussycat is an American hard rock/sleaze rock band created in 1986 in Los Angeles by the owner of the Hollywood club Cathouse, Taime Downe. The band took its incorrectly deciphered name from Russ Meyer's low-budget exploitation film "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" The band changed its lineup and style more than once; Downe is the only permanent member and "steersman" of the band's style. The band gained the greatest popularity at the end of the 1980s with the release of their albums Faster Pussycat (1987) and Wake Me When It's Over (1989), which became gold.
