What would you recommend to a fan of Pussy Galore/Royal Trux/Country Teasers?

and Indian Jewelry.

this is a great album

Free Kitten - Nice Ass

this one has its' moments

When I first listened to the Country Teasers Full Moon Empty Sportsbag (which made my Pazz & Jop ballot for 2004), the first track made me think of the Electric Eels (mid '70s Cleveland, hung around with Mirrors/Rocket from the Tombs/Ubu/Styrenes and was at least as good as any of them, most hair-raising but also the hookyiest and catchiest), the second track made me think of The Fall, and the fourth track made me think of "White House Blues" by Charlie Poole & the North Carolina Ramblers, an old-timey country dance band from the 1920s. Also, my guess is if you like the Teasers you'll like Mofungo and The Scene Is Now and the early Holy Modal Rounders albums, not necessarily because they sound so much like the Teasers but because of a common sensibility, the idea of we'll take what's lying around and throw it into the soup.

Actually, I'm hoping for non-contemporary stuff here, although anything is welcome. Your No New York recommendations would have been perfect, except I'm already familiar with those groups. Basically, I'm on a search for any group that has a sound similar to LIVE IN THE RED by Pussy Galore...everyone trashes on PG, yet as far as I can tell their style is almost completely unique.

I'm slowly checking out the recommendations mentioned throughout the thread. The Oblivians seem pretty close to what I was looking for, so thanks for that. I'll also check out your suggestions, Frank.

Any kind of punk/blues/noise combinations are welcome.

It's a little scattered and more electronic than PG, but tracks like Sit Down Silly (good one to download) have that sort of stop/start, clattery percussion, minimal riff thing going on, while still being more rock than industrial. There's a similar artsy/abrasive attitude too.

Really? That wasn't my experience when they were a band. For instance, the first review I ever got paid for was a rave of Pussy Gold 5000 (though Jon Spencer hated that review, maybe because I was using PG as a stick to bash the rest of indie rock), and Greg Sandow gave a rave to Sugarshit Sharp (which well deserved it).
