Doo-Wop with a twist

British girl group The Pipettes takes the 60s pop sounds of bands like The Shangri Las, and puts a somewhat nasty twist to it. The group was formed in 2003 by producer Monster Bobby and released their first full length album, We Are The Pipettes, in 2006. The Pipettes have released a new EP stateside called Your Kisses Are Wasted On Me. If tight harmonies, sugary beats, and clever lyrics are your bag, be sure to check them out.
