Fronted by Emily Hell, Mandy Wong and Louise Prey, they released their self-titled debut EP in 2000 on Alan McGee's Poptones label. It featured former Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones and Roxy Music's Phil Manzanera on guitars. In 2004, Ping Pong Bitches guested on The Prodigy's "Girls", from their Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned album and then put together a full band, adding Danny Noise (guitars & production), Sister Hell (keyboards) and Ol Brown (decks & co-production) to the line-up. They have recently been in the studio recording an album that was released on Umami Records in early 2007, preceded by the singles Roc Ya Body and The Beast. Their first new single Roc Ya Body was released on 30 October and the CD single includes a video as well as a club remix by 'Punx Soundcheck'. The limited DJ promo (on 12" vinyl) features an extra remix by McSleazy. 'Roc Ya Body' was inspired by Louise Prey's illicit lust for a teenage boy she met on a coach to Manchester. 2007 saw the release of their debut full-length Alphadog, featuring new versions of some the songs on the first EP. Their album received generally extremely negative reviews, Chris Ingold of Musicomh warned "Approach with extreme caution - the Ping Pong Bitches could have a negative effect on your sanity."[1] Discography
The versions of Rock Action and Beat You Up featured on this recording are different recordings and arrangements to the original versions featured on the self-titled 2000 EP, and in particular Beat You Up doesn't have the Donna Summer interpolation in the background.
