We make unapologetic hair metal. That's right Hinder you haven't cornered the market on trying to resurrect pop metal that is more concerned with bandanas, hair spray, bad tattoos and underage peroxide blondes. We're just as derivative as you! Fucking poseurs.
So flick your bic, chug your beer and let's see your girlfriend's tits. We're Pusher and you're not!

Leave 'Em Wanting More
Date Released: 8/16/2011
Tracks: 12 Pusher haven't graced many stages of late, but that doesn't mean they've grown soft or stale. No these boys are still making noise, and whether they're in some chicks boudoir or playing a sold-out stadium gig they've got but one goal...Leave 'Em Wanting More. © 2011 Burning Sensation Records Produced by: Max Noise Engineered by: Pete Kimchee Recorded at: Massive Compression Studios Mastered by: Rob Smoghill Management: Sir Ruddy Cheeks, Yobbo Entertainment Publicity: Styles Bitchly, Bitchly Please & Partners Pusher would like to thank: Rikki Snake - my parents for pushing me to become the debauched rock star I am. All those hours of making sure I smoked my pot, drank copious amounts of cheap whiskey, and practiced my screaming really paid off. Thanks Mom and Dad! You're the best. Axe Body Spray, Trojan condoms, and Genitrex. Hey I'm a lead vocalist in a hair metal band...that's my gear. Oh yeah, Shure microphones...happy? Shane and Tornado from Agua Netz. And last but not least, El Pollo Loco for always keeping me employed between tours. Rock on! Robbie DiCanzerio: Ibanez Guitars and my exotic dancer girlfriend Fawn. JJ Luxembourg: My harem of groupies, free drugs from overzealous fans, and of course tour rider booze. Frank our bus driver for picking me up off the floor of more bars and strip clubs than I can remember. My ex-wife Candi for dropping the lawsuit. God, for making me a bassist in a hair metal band, possibly the easiest and best job in the world. Mike Hunt: Christine LaGarde...hubba hubba. Spanky: The judge in Dallas for only giving me community service and a fine instead of jail time. My lawyer for helping me cop a plea. My band mates in Pusher for not auditioning new drummers in my absence. Zildjian...I think they gave me my cymbals? Yeah, they did. Thanks Zildjian. And anyone who wants to give me a free kit. |

A Nose for Trouble
Date Released: 8/4/2009
Tracks: 12 When Pusher decided to rent a house in Laurel Canyon to record their next album, the idea was that they would be inspired in much the same way the Red Hot Chili Peppers were when they recorded their blockbuster album "Blood Sugar Sex Magic". Unfortunately, they didn't have enough money to rent a house, so they rented a mobile home instead and parked it illegally on a street in Glendale, CA. Recorded on a 4-track, A Nose for Trouble is a bacchanalian orgy of musical and personal excess. Enjoy! |
