Anyone heard these fabricated girls and the "electro-rock" tracks produced for them? Do you enjoy what this project projects?

Stop talking like a fucking call centre assistant and ask the question properly if you want a proper answer.

i haven't heard them to be honest Joe, but i can't say the idea of them appeals. i am imagining a hybrid of bis and fischerspooner (but worse than that sounds)

also theres something terribly earnest about their presentation maybe?

Thank you for your time and patience sir. Have a good day.

aren't they just Lolita Storm? but disco?

Lolita Storm? I'm not in the know. The Bis meets FischerSpooner is a close description though...and it does sound like a bad idea...though there was a track by "Seagull Screaming Kiss Her Kiss Her" that pulled this off remarkably well (or was that some other Tarttoria band?)

I heard a coupla trax0rz off their album. I thought they sux0red, & could see no point in releasing or rekording it. I thought it just some silly-a$$ gimmick.

They are genuinely awful. They remind me of Sigue Sigue Sputnik.

reason for revive :
just rediscovered the fact that i have the noblesse oblige album in the archive.
(for some reason i ended up on their promo list).
and its pretty crap.
hence the 'oh whatever happened ... ' thread ...
