- Faster Pussycat was formed in Hollywood by Taime Downe during the Glam metal boom of the 1980s, the earliest incarnation of the band featured Downe and Greg Steele along with Brent Muscat. The name of the band, "Faster Pussycat", is derived from the Russ Meyer film Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!.
After many early personnel changes, Faster Pussycat consisted of Taime Downe (vocals), Greg Steele (guitar), Brent Muscat (guitar), Kelly Nickels (bass) and Mark Michals (drums).
Just before they recorded their debut album, Kelly Nickels left the group and was replaced by Eric Stacy
The band signed a record contract with Elektra Records which released their debut album Faster Pussycat in 1987. The band established a following among Heavy-Metal, Glam-Rock and 'Sleaze Rock' fans, mainly through two promotional videos from the first album, for the songs Bathroom Wall and Don't Change That Song. In November 1987 the band appeared on the cover of Screamer Magazine's debut issue. Says David Castagno, the magazine's Publisher/Editor and now host of RadioScreamer, "Faster Pussycat will always hold a special place in my heart." In the United States the band toured with Alice Cooper, David Lee Roth, and Motörhead in support of the album.
Also in 1987, Faster Pussycat appeared in the Rockumentary film, The Decline of Western Civilization part 2 - The Metal Years. The band was interviewed at some length and performed live versions of "Cathouse" and "Bathroom Wall".
Two years later, Faster Pussycat recorded their most successful album Wake Me When It's Over. The album earned 'Gold' status from the RIAA. Sales were mainly driven by the hit single, "House of Pain". Music videos were produced for "House of Pain", and "Poison Ivy". While the band were touring for the album in 1990, drummer Mark Michals was arrested in Omaha, Nebraska for trying to mail heroin to his hotel room and was subsequently kicked out of the band.Frankie Banali of Quiet Riot filled in as their drummer for the remainder of the tour. After finishing the tour, Brett Bradshaw became Faster Pussycat's new long-term drummer. Tours with KISS and Mötley Crüe followed - Hudba
