Ping Pong Bitches

Billed as a take-no-crap group whose idea of foreplay is kung fu, the Ping Pong Bitches were an electro rock/shock trio comprised of Mandy Wong, Louise Prey, and Emily Hell. Fusing the Stooges with Giorgio Moroder, they made their recorded debut with a self-titled EP in 2001 on Poptones. The Sex Pistols' Steve Jones and Roxy Music's Phil Manzanera were able to survive their company just long enough to provide guitars for the record. Within short order, their live performances regularly incited physical reactions from unsuspecting onlookers who weren't partial to having their punk mixed with disco. As for any deeper info on the band members, well, that's available from the PPBs on a knee-to-nose basis.
