The group has received critical acclaim from Rolling Stone,[4] Robert Christgau,[5] Chicago,[6] and SPIN.[7] HistoryWussy formed in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 2001 while Chuck Cleaver had just released the last album with his previous group, Ass Ponys.[8] He met Lisa Walker and asked her to perform with him in at a local awards show in Cincinnati in 2001. Following the performance the duo decided to form a band together.[9] Walker is originally from Muncie, Indiana, who attended Cedarville University and has worked in marketing.[10] They were joined by Messerly on bass and Dawn Burman on drums in 2002.[11] Burman had not yet mastered the instrument but joined as "I loved their sound and wanted to be part of it".[12] Cleaver finalised his previous band with a compilation in 2005 leaving him to concentrate on Wussy.[10] They made their recording debut in 2005 with the album Funeral Dress (album) on Shake it Records,[13] the label of a local record store of the same name.[17] The record was produced by John Curley at his Ultrasuede Studios,[14] where the band would continue to record future albums.[15] While making the album all four band members suffered some personal hardship that inspired much of the 2007 record Left for Dead.[16] Contrary to other releases it relied heavily on Walker's writing,[16] and was described by Spin as doing "relationship songs right".[17] It was followed by a self-titled album in 2009. The same year drummer Burman left and was replaced by Joe Klug.[11] In late 2010, the band recorded an acoustic version of their debut as Funeral Dress II live at Ultrasuede that was released for Record Store Day 2011.[18][19] The album Strawberry was released in November 2011 and was described as "driven by an unpretentious, rust-flecked honesty and a warped worldview".[9] Former Ass Ponys member John Erhardt joined the band before recording started.[13] The band embarked on a three-week headling tour in support of the album.[20] In 2012 they released the Europe-only seventeen track compilation Buckeye on Damnably Records,[21][22] their first international release.[23] In 2014 they released the album Attica!, the title inspired by the film Dog Day Afternoon, while the single and The Who tribute "Teenage Wasteland",[13] received some airplay. The album was released in the UK through Damnably Records.[11] In March 2016 the band released their seventh album, Forever Sounds, which reached number 20 on the Billboard Heatseeker album chart.[24] The band's eighth album, What Heaven is Like, was released in May 2018.[25] At the beginning of the band Cleaver and Walker were a couple but separated in 2007.[9] On the band's name, Wussy: Cleaver joked that "I think it looks good on a t-shirt."[26] Critical acclaimThe band is a favourite with some rock critics.[27] In 2012 Robert Christgau wrote that "Wussy have been the best since they released the first of their five superb albums in 2005",[28] and he has called them his "favorite band".[29] Two albums later, Charles Taylor said the impact of Wussy's poetic lyrics and evocative sounds "brings you immediately back to the way we received rock and roll as solitary adolescents, as if the songs were radio transmissions from a resistance we hadn't dared to hope existed."[30] Members
