London, United Kingdom (1989 – present)

Daisy Chainsaw formed in London in 1989. Their live gigs included vines and rag dolls strewn across the stage and KatieJane Garside thrashing around in soiled gowns drinking pineapple juice from a baby bottle, which was a disturbing yet enchanting look for the quirky starlet.

Their music, a bubbly intense britpunk sound, was a big hit amongst the scene. The band was very successful with their Love Sick Pleasure EP which included the hit “Love Your Money.” They turned down Top of the Pops and even an offer to be signed to Madonna’s Maverick label, later signing to independent One Little Indian. One full album was released, Eleventeen, while KatieJane was still in the band. In 1993, just before leaving the band, KatieJane shaved her head and drilled baby doll heads onstage - the act was becoming more and more violent. She finally left the band for good that year and disappeared from the music industry.

After the departure of Garside, Daisy Chainsaw proceeded to make one more full length album titled For They Know Not What They Do with Belinda Leith on vocals, and one more EP titled You’re Gruesome with Crispin replacing Leith before splitting for good.

The new millennium saw KatieJane Garside and Crispin Gray musically reuniting to form Queen Adreena, an outfit which has since produced three records.

i bought this tape in high school because i saw they were on the same label as bjork...i wore it out and had to buy the cd...they were one of the last few bands who embraced the "freak" tag, and wore it well...i miss those bands, where the music and look was just odd

i bought love sick pleasure in a used cd store for 99 cents a couple years ago because i thought the band name was cool. definitely scored with that one. i found eleventeen at the same place like a year later for 1.99.

I'm suprised. 56,253 listeners for QA (another 939 if you count the correctly tagged page) and only 24,755 listeners for Daisy Chainsaw. I couldn't have one without the other.
