Another song, ‘She Says’, featured on a Damaged Goods compilation, while ‘Teenage Dream’ appeared on a Bluefire compilation. The band members were credited on ‘Plastic Supermodel’ as being called Sue, Geni and Bob. Almost nothing is known about them; while it appears that their MySpace is run by at least one former member, there are no photos and the band members are listed as “girls, boys and music machines”. According to MusicBrainz, Anorak Girl were rumoured to be a spoof band of sorts created as a side-project by the Reading band Cuckooland to “out-twee” Helen Love. In 2007 Anorak Girl uploaded a new song, ‘Peter and Katy’, to the MySpace www.myspace.com/anorakgirl. There were no further new recordings. The download album ‘Plastic Fantastic’, released in 2008 by Damaged Goods, compiles all seven Anorak Girl songs. |
