Lock up your sons! The notorious Ping Pong Bitches are back and ready to unleash their new album ALPHA DOG on Umami Records in February 2007, Following the release of their single Roc Ya Body on 30th October 2006. Signed by Mark Moore from S’Express, The Bitches have created a monster of an album that will stop you dead in your tracks with tales of sex, teenage boys, high heels and psychosis.
Renown for their mesmerizing shows, the girls have been busy touring the world, supporting rock and pop bands such as Scissor Sisters and The Prodigy as well as fitting in festival shows at Coachella, Pukkelpop and Popcomm.
Since their last incarnation, The Ping Pong Bitches have reinvented themselves as a four piece band. The two original disco hell-cat front women, Emily Hell and Louise Prey remain, but Hong Kong’s Mandy Wong has been replaced by two instrumentalists Danny Noise (guitars and production) and Sister Hell (Keyboards). The result is a live show that rocks out with a mightier sound of guitar rich electro punk. Most recently they provided vocals on the Prodigy album “Always outnumbered never outgunned”, most memorably on the opening track “Spitfire” and the hit single “Girls”
The forthcoming album Alpha Dog takes its influences from a diverse range of bands and genres including Daft Punk, The Ramones, Blondie, Lil Kim, Serge Gainsbourg, Soft Cell and Notorious B.I.G. Their style is a melting pot of 80’s disko danceability, gansta rap and powerfully assertive Stooges style rock.
The Bitches boast a pedigree or pure rock ’n’ roll: They have a fiercely independent spirit which has earned then patronage from some of the industry’s most notorious and successful managers including Malcom McClaren, Alan McGee and Mike Champion. Alpha Dog is testament to the dedication in producing songs that rock the dance floor and get you itching for the weekend.
“When I first saw the Ping Pong Bitches I fell In love. I thought this is how the Shangri-Las would sound if they were brought up on a diet of Acid House and The Ramones” – Mark Moore
“This is about attitude bondage chic and pouty burlesque. Its high heels and high kicks” – NME
“The coolest girls / gurls/ grrrls in music now! This is everything you have ever wanted. Exhilarating!” – Ink19

Hi PING PONG BITCHES, thanks for continuing to be a friend of Electroflex.
Some important news!
Electroflex have been back in the studio following a break from gigging and recording with new track ‘Computer Virus’.
This is the first of a series of new releases for 2009, and what better day to start on than Liz’s Birthday!
‘Computer Virus’ is a live favourite. Anyone forced to work with computers will know how evil they are and this track is Electroflex’s response to Kraftwerk’s ‘Its More Fun to Compute’. It is a bouncy number with a serious bassline, sing-along chorus and a selection of curious samples.
The track will only be up on Myspace in full for a short time. Alternatively, visit our Facebook and iLike pages where you can add the song to you playlists
