Cleaning Women
Jed:
Anyone heard of this band? Three guys dressed up as women and play really cool music.
“It’s a joke, right?”
Three guys in drag, clinking away like monkeys in heat at their home-made instruments made out of clotheshorses and pickle jars, hollering vaguely nonsensical slogans about the importance of cleaning…
Despite the apparent flimsiness of their self-customized ‘drying racks’, their sound and teamwork are tight and sturdy in a punkjazz kinda way, and despite the undisputably avantgardian approach, the actual songs are danceable and easy to relate to, with enough nuances to transcend most genre boundaries.
“Intergalactic industrial disco rock”, somebody came up with, “ambient afro-techno riff crunch”, tried another one, “really NEAT music”, most people realize.

Inlander:
Do any of the other Australians here see the title of this thread, see that it's in the Music forum, and think "Sadie the Cleaning Lady"?
I had a small moment of terror when I thought maybe John Farnham had somehow managed to persuade the world he was cool, a la Kylie Minogue.
Kai:
woo! I like bands with odd gimmicks for some reason.
