Review

Rolling Stone (p.69) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "'Loop de Loop' sounds like a raucous, booze-soaked party and should be added to the jukebox of every dive bar across the country pronto."
Spin (p.104) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Unrestrained by the intensity of their own compositions, the Walkmen ease through infectious covers of covers and Nilsson's own songs of inebriated melancholy."
Entertainment Weekly (p.72) - "Nilsson's songs are wickedly wry, and the vibe is intoxicating." -- Grade: B
Alternative Press (p.189) - "With its infectiously festive atmosphere and broad instrumental range, PUSSY CATS reveals facets of the Walkmen's personality that their originals haven't explored."
CMJ (p.42) - "Drowned in bluesy vocals, woozy piano and playfully morbid decadence..."

Title Note

Mere months after releasing A HUNDRED MILES OFF in 2006, the Walkmen issued PUSSY CATS, a song-by-song cover of Harry Nilsson's John Lennon-produced 1974 album of the same name, which was recorded during the duo's notorious "lost weekend" phase. The Brooklyn-based indie-rock act approaches the material with both ambition and playfulness. Among the highlights are a woozy yet emotive reading of the Jimmy Cliff-penned opener, "Many Rivers to Cross," which allows gravel-voiced frontman Hamilton Leithauser to cut loose, and "All My Life," an off-kilter, string-laden track that stands as a testament to the Walkmen's bold eclecticism. The CD is accompanied by a 20-minute documentary on DVD, making the set essential for diehard Walkmen fans, as well as a fascinating document for aficionados of the infamous original album.
