Granted, muscle cars are a personal fetish of mine, but aside from hot chicks and booze, I firmly believe few things are more rock-appropriate than a vintage car barreling down the road, riffs in tow. Whitesnake gets the most recognition for this. However, Jaguars are kind of lame, and despite her gauze-y get-up, nimble gymnastic skills and finesse with white pumps, that Tawny Kitaen just turned out to be one crazy bitch who didn’t age too well. I much prefer these examples, and I particularly like how this works with the Deep Purple-esque organ driving Black Mountain’s killer new psych-rock single, “Old Fang.”
List continues after the jump…Fu Manchu, “King of the Road” (practically gonzo porn, but with muscle cars):White Zombie, “Thunder Kiss ’65” (bonus points for cow skull hood ornament):Guns ‘n’ Roses, “Don’t Cry” (Slash’s domestic scuttlebutt ends in a ball of fire around 2:55, and that’s a damn shame, considering the sweet Shelby ‘Stang involved):
