London, United Kingdom (1989 – 1995)
Daisy Chainsaw was an English noise rock band that 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.
The band was very successful with their Love Sick Pleasure EP which included the hit “Love Your Money.” - primarily due to prime time appearances on ITV’s The Chart Show and Channel 4’s The Word.
However, they had to decline appearing on BBC TV’s Top of the Pops because Garside had a throat infection. “Love Your Money” reached number 26 in the UK Singles Chart in February 1992. 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 in 1995.

"Love Your Money" on a Gossip Girl commercial??? LOL. Well, I mean, the song fits, right? It's just that literally NO ONE knows this band even exists and they had their shortlived fame almost 20 years ago. They were a blip on the radar, but they had some cool songs. How odd.

I was at a record store in my city called Music Millennium today, and while browsing their $2 used CD shelves, I found a copy of Eleventeen; I almost had a heart attack, partially because it's not an easy album to come across, and partially because I was shocked that it was being sold for a mere 2 dollars. Needless to say, a purchase was made.
