Hot Nasties

The Hot Nasties were a punk rock band from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. They were of the first wave of Canadian punk rock and notably featured future Liberal Party of Canada strategist and lawyer Warren Kinsella on bass and vocals.

History

In 1976, high-school friends Warren Kinsella, Alan McDonald and Pierre Schenk decided to form a punk rock band called the Social Blemishes. [cite web| url =http://www.punkhistorycanada.ca/noise/view.php?cat_id=31&id=115 | title = Hot Nasties page at Punk History Canada| ] In 1977, they changed their name to the Hot Nasties.

In 1980, they released their first 7" EP, the Invasion of the Tribbles EP on Kinsella's own Social Blemish Records. [cite web| url =http://www.punkhistorycanada.ca/noise/view.php?cat_id=31&id=115 | title = Hot Nasties page at Punk History Canada| ] . Later that year, they produced an album length collection of their songs on cassette, now almost unfindable.Fact|date=February 2007

The band split in 1981, but were featured on the 1994 "Smash the State" Volume 1 compilation released by Frank Manley, who also released a Canadian punk rock discography book bearing the same name. [cite book

Back to his punk rock roots in 2005, Warren Kinsella formed the band Shit From Hell and released a self-titled album which featured two Hot Nasties covers: "Barney Rubble (is my double)" and "Happy Song".

In 2005, The Evaporators also covered "Barney Rubble is My Double" on their "Ripple Rock" album.
