What the label says:

‘Get ‘em out for the boys,’ is the reaction many women in music still face. In fact, that’s the phrase – albeit in French - that one photographer used when shooting ROBOTS IN DISGUISE aka DEE PLUME (guitar and vocals) and SUE DENIM (bass and vocals) for a French glossy, which probably prefers to remain nameless. But while many would rant, huff & puff or simply cave in, ROBOTS IN DISGUISE decided to celebrate the launch of their 3rd album, WE’RE IN THE MUSIC BIZ, by beating the boys at their own game. The maverick electro-pop duo with a reputation for their fashion-forward style appear on the cover with immaculate hair and make-up wearing skinny-minny shirts and ties. But what’s this? Those girls are naked but for layer of skilfully applied body paint! ‘We like to subvert people’s expectations of us as a band and have a bit of fun with it,’ says agent provocateuse, Dee. ‘People have seen those pictures and it’s so unexpected that they’ve not even clocked it,’ says Sue. Part riot grrl princesses, part monsters of DIY musical mayhem, ROBOTS IN DISGUISE have enjoyed cult success in France and Germany where they’ve toured extensively around their first two albums, but now they’re setting their sights closer to home, supporting The Gossip on tour this summer and picking up fans from the likes of CSS, The Klaxons, Princess Superstar and Chicks on Speed. WE’RE IN THE MUSIC BIZ sees the Robots developing their signature sound and tell-it-like-it-is lyrics, with a sharper, boppier and frequently impossibly catchy feel. Produced by Chris Corner (Sneaker Pimps/ I Am X) in Berlin, WE’RE IN THE MUSIC BIZ includes the hit single, THE SEX HAS MADE ME STUPID, a hedonistic, future indie-dance classic of what happens when you get off with someone you like. The sex, the drink, the illegal substances – the sheer addictive mess and mayhem that inevitably ensue from acting on attraction. Get it out for the girls… Confirmed Press includes The London Paper, The Fly, Record Collector, Stool pigeon, Mojo, AXM, SubVert Magazine, Loaded, Mixmag, NME, Artrocker, DJ Magazine, Maxim.
