The (Magnificent) Ping Pong Bitches (a name apparently given to them by their ex-boyfriends) is an all girl electroclash band from England, who formed in 2000. Fronted by three rather risque members (Emily Hell, Mandy Wong and Louise Prey), they released their self-titled debut EP in 2000 on Alan McGee's Poptones label. It was a fusion of punk, disco, techno and Chinese pop, and featured former Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones and Roxy Music's Phil Manzanera on guitars. In 2004, Ping Pong Bitches guested on "Girls", a track on The Prodigy's ''Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned'' and then put together a full band, adding Danny Noise (guitars & production), Sister Hell (keyboards) and Ol Brown (decks & co-production) to the line-up. They have recently been in the studio recording an album that will be released on (Umami Records ) in early 2007, preceded by the singles ''Roc Ya Body'' and ''The Beast''. Their first new single ''Roc Ya Body'' was released on 30 October and the CD single includes a video as well as a club remix by 'Punx Soundcheck'. The limited DJ promo (on 12" vinyl) features an extra remix by McSleazy. 'Roc Ya Body' was inspired by blonde vocalist Louise Prey's illicit lust for a teenage boy she met on a coach to Manchester. The year 2007 saw the release of their debut full-length ''Alphadog'', featuring new versions of some the songs on the first EP. Their album received generally extremely negative reviews, Chris Ingold of Musicomh warned "approach with extreme caution - the Ping Pong Bitches could have a negative effect on your sanity."〔http://www.musicomh.com/albums/ping-pong-bitches_1006.htm〕 ==Discography== *Ping Pong Bitches EP, 2000 #Beat You Up (features an interpolation of the backing from Donna Summer's I feel Love) #I Love You Necrophiliac #Rock Action (With Steve Jones) #Dynamite #Chinese Song (with Phil Manzanera) *Alphadog LP Promo, Full UK Release February 2007 #Alphadog #Roc Ya Body (2006 Single) #The Beast #Kinky Boots #Rock Action #Chains #Krazyfaze #Glitchfunk TV #Beat You Up #Bedsitter #Superfine #Gatecrasher #Fallen Stars Radio The versions of Rock Action and Beat You Up featured on this recording are different recordings and arrangements to the original versions featured on the self-titled 2000 EP, and in particular Beat You Up doesn't have the Donna Summer interpolation in the background. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ping Pong Bitches」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
