[3][4] Their album, The Devil Lives in my Husband's Body, released on London's Y Records, has been described as a "joke that gets funnier every time you hear it."
[2] Jen B. Larson of BandCamp writes that for their first show, "Pulsallama recruited members from the Ladies Auxiliary of the Lower East Side, Magnuson's "twisted version" of a conservative women's civic club — plus [Jean] Caffeine, a practiced drummer from San Francisco punk band The Urge," and Palmieri recalled, "[she] did not know it was an actual band, and missed the second show.
[12] The band emerged during the Club 57 Downtown scene cabaret in New York City as part of the tongue-in-cheek "Ladies Auxillary [sic]" at the venue.
A writer for NME magazine wrote of their shows, "“I was dancing, screaming and laughing, all at the same time.”[13] Palmieri was also a close personal friend of performer and downtown scene figure, John Sex, and documented his life during the 1980s.
[17][18] In 2019, Palmieri showed work in the Yesterday's Tomorrowland Today exhibition curated by Ann Magnuson and Alexa Hunter in Los Angeles.
