Pussy & The Learjets produced Grade A sonic napalm for those eternally disaffected, danger-loving cuties and oblivion seekers living in Bangkok. The indie music scene here is an angry, schizophrenic and ever-changing community of misfits & outcast artists.

One hot December evening, the feisty 21 year old Om walked into a rehearsal studio underneath an expressway fly-over in downtown Bangkok. L’Amour counted us in and we rumbled through three 1960's garage punk classics.
Within the first eight bars of the first song, a Rock’n’Roll band was born. The room shook and swung and turned itself inside out. The band was tight and competent enough, but that was hardly the point.
Right from the first moment, it was all about the girl. There was no doubt that Om had a way of expressing herself that was all her own.
