Biography

British electronic band, formed in Hartlepool, UK in the early 1990s by Chris Corner and Liam Howe. Members through their history include Kelli Ali (vocals, occasional lyrics – under name [a=Kelli Dayton]), Joe Wilson (bass, guitar, occasional vocals), David Westlake (drums, programming), Ian Pickering (lyrics, occasional vocals, and bass on later live gigs). As of 2019, Simonne Jones joined efforts towards the proposed new album as the band's vocalist. Other contributors to note are Chris Tate (occasional keyboards on later live gigs), and Noel Fielding (very occasional bass on later live gigs/IAMX cross-over period). The group released three studio albums before ceasing activities, as core member Chris Corner turned his focus to his later solo project [a=IAMX]. In 2021, the group confirmed a reformation with plans to release new music, alongside a new website and social media outlets.

LYRICS

Got answers for everyone, endless excuses
Not habit for anyone, cos I'm trying to break your click-track heart
Seen a vision of perfect grace, airbrushed and lifeless
All contempt and aftertaste it's like I'm waiting for the scars to heal
You're so Loretta young silks, fashioning your self-escape
You're so Loretta young silks, trading on your superwaif
All style before content, using me as bait
You're so Loretta young silks, swapping your love for hate

Soft focus for full appeal, pictured as flawless
No context for self-esteem, I'd be pushed to give you love on that
As far as the eye can see : too much perfection
Pure substance for wannabes, keeps you beating to a click-track heart

You're so Loretta young silks, fashioning your self-escape
You're so Loretta young silks, trading on your superwaif
All style before content, using me as bait
You're so Loretta young silks, swapping your love for hate

You're so Loretta young silks, fashioning your self-escape
You're so Loretta young silks, trading on your superwaif
All style before content, using me as bait
You're so Loretta young silks, swapping your love for hate

You're so Loretta young silks, swapping your love for hate
You're so Loretta young silks, swapping your love for hate
You're so Loretta young silks, swapping your love for hate
You're so Loretta young silks, swapping your love for hate
