Femme Fatality
If Soft Cell had emerged during the electroclash age instead of in the new-wave era, it might have sounded something like Femme Fatality. The black-clad duo of Monanani Palermo and Octavia Leito spews robotic rhymes with the precision of a metronome, over throbbing beats cobbled together from "90s hip-hop and batcave-dwelling synth-punk. The live show is even more bananas, with films, hand-held lights and even audience participation -- i.e., random folks compelled to undress and dirty-dance onstage -- contributing to the debauched-discotheque atmosphere. Above all, however, Femme Fatality keeps people guessing about its intentions -- is the pair serious about its techno tricks, or is it all a cheeky ironic joke? After all, it takes a special band to cover EMF''s cheeseball hit "Unbelievable" -- and still whip the crowd into an appreciative frenzy in the process.

With their premier release, Never Had a Daddy, the St. Louis based twosome Femme Fatality combine funky electro beats with cancerous Goth vocals. Throw in some sporadic moments of comedic white boy rapping, and it''s enough to elicit a full-out, fishnet-shredding dancing frenzy.
Not only does Femme Fatality make for the dancing, but with lyrics like, "I''m not the type of player who hollers ''cause I want head / I''m the type of player who hollers cause I want her dead?" they ruthlessly indulge a "Johnny the Homicidal Maniac" sense of humor.
Many of the tracks on Never Had a Daddy deal with murdering girlfriends and groupies. (Hence the band''s name.) It''s one sick, inane, and egocentric little album. Don''t take Femme Fatality seriously, though. Just relax and allow the merciful force of satire to ethically satiate your twisted cravings.

Over at the Green Room, St-Louis duo Femme Fatality hit Montreal for a dose of dancefloor-erupting electro-pop. If you haven''t heard of these guys before (they''ve opened for the Rapture and Felix Da Housecat and allegedly upstaged them both), Femme Fatality have been attracting the loudest, rowdiest, most drunkenly raucous crowd in their hometown since the International Bowling Museum and Hall of Fame opened up back in ''84. Black outfits and eyeliner not mandatory, but suggested.
