Robots In Disguise

Posted almost 6 years ago
Any fans of the Mighty Boosh will recognise these girls as part of Kraftwerk Orange (cue arm movement) but they are actually part of a proper, serious and really quite good band. (unfortunately Johnny Two Hats is not with them)Musically they are just as electronic as KO and have a sound similar to Chicks on Speed but.... well, good. Lyrically they sometimes stray towards Boosh territory and the whole sound of the band seems like what Julian and Noel would be like if they were musicians rather than comedians. Robots in Disguise describe themselves as "situated between Gainsbourg, Chicks On Speed and Kraftwerk and combine the attitude of The Slits with the versatility of Bowie, exquisitely produced by SNEAKER PIMPS' lead songwriter, Chris Corner (I Am X). Dream ESG, Elastica and Serge Gainsbourg in a pop clusterfuck." and while they won't be everyone's cup of tea anyone who like their music to be electro, dancable and most of fun should check them out. just go to:http://www.robotsindisguise.co.uk/robotsindisguiseIV.html

  2. Tina ModBoosh says That's my favourite episode! I only know one song by Robots in Disguise; Mirror Mirror (I think that's what it's called!) but it's a really brilliant song! I think the brunette is Noel Fielding's girlfriend.
