![]() | Public News: Shredding Myths (PRESS, US) INTERVIEW (SCAN): "Pussy Galore has become one of the more important bands to emerge from the new head-slamming school of American guitar/noise bands. Punk is dead, and bands like Sonic Youth, Big Black, Butthole Surfers, and Pussy Galore reaffirm our faith in the shear power and strength of rock music with their dissimilar but equally assaulting sounds." | 1987.10.07 |

![]() | Reflex: Pussy Galore (PRESS, UK) RIGHT NOW! REVIEW (TEXT): "In the two years of Pussy Galore's existence, I've been hurled through a frightening deja-vu history lesson. Unlike any I've had in school, this was the origin and evolution of the twisted side of Rock 'n' Roll. I don't mean to say that Pussy Galore has shed any light on the old, typically banal arguments of who did what first." | 1987.08.00 |
