Pansexual electro pop trio Liquid Diet is preparing to release their first full length album, entitled DOUBLE LIFE, by offering fans free downloads of some of their popular songs, including HAND DANCE.
Liquid Diet is a scrumptious new musical cocktail fronted by Aussie bombshell Georgia Haege and Californian charmer Billy Hanson. Music master Electronathan tops off the elixir. The music of Liquid Diet has been described as "equal parts disco and electro, with a healthy dose of over-the-top lyrics." Whether you spit or swallow, Liquid Diet is a fast and effective way to shed those unwanted inhibitions on the dance floor.
The band's debut EP features the title track HAND DANCE, the disco-licious jam NUDE, and a club-ready remake of George Michael's FATHER FIGURE. In case you're wondering, yes: HAND DANCE is indeed a guilt-free and infectious ode to self-pleasure. Check out the campy, risqué music video for the song:
Liquid Diet's first full-length album, entitled DOUBLE LIFE, is set for an explosive release in late 2014. The album already has insiders buzzing and is likely to propel this low-carb, high-energy band to a whole new level of visibility.
"I feel like DOUBLE LIFE is going to quench our fans' thirst for some super fun and dirty dance tunes," said vocalist Billy. "But there are also some more downtempo, heartfelt, and raw tracks. We're really exposing ourselves with this album, and I'm not just saying that because we have some fully pornographic music videos in the works."
For a limited time, fans can find FREE downloads of some of Liquid Diet's songs on SoundCloud.
In addition to being compared to such established acts as The Scissor Sisters, Hot Chip and Chromeo, Liquid Diet has received loads of favorable reviews since the release of the HAND DANCE EP. Here are some highlights:
"Crafty and clever. Fantastically hypersexual." -Audio Fuzz
"Glamorous pop goodness (by) a trio of desperately attractive individuals." -AusPoP
"...Sexy nouveau-disco trio Liquid Diet, kinky cool kids who crank out seriously infectious tunes like a dreamy electro cover of George Michael's "Father Figure" and refreshingly witty, flirty, narcissistic, super-gay party tracks "Nude" and "Hand Dance." -The Advocate
"Funny, feel-good, laughable songs that make you wanna get down and dirty. Their video for 'Hand Dance' is a tongue-in-cheek glory ride of fun." -Anti Twink
"A retro new wave vibe, in a kind of Animotion-meets-Divinyls kind of way. Kitschy for sure but not only instantly likeable but hard to get out of your head, and before you know it you'll want more. Vocalists Georgia and Billy trade off well." -BillCS
"From the ashes of that cheeky electro-pop trio Whore's Mascara comes Liquid Diet... a new foray into sexed-up dance comedy... fierce beats, sexual innuendo and oversexed dance pop." -Next Magazine
"A hilarious and hot music video." -Justin + 1
"Pansexual electro pop trio from the twisted minds of Whore's Mascara...Just full of sexual innuendos and double entendre." -Queerty
"Get ready for the most fun diet around: Liquid Diet." -According 2 G
"A new sound that is sure to quench your thirst... Liquid Diet dishes out amazing dancefloor-ready disco pop that'll be sure to make your taste buds tingle." -The Showt
"Entendre, innuendo...whatever you call it, it has a funky beat and I can bug out to it. Pop trio Liquid Diet are storming the music scene with a delightfully fun romp through the latest craze to sweep the nation, the Hand Dance. The video is super sexy and is a perfect complement to the song. Georgia and Billy are perfectly delectable and have such charisma and charm they could be singing the telephone directory and I would pay attention. Their back and forth works amazingly well and it makes me think of other great male/female duos: Astrid Plane & Bill Wadhams from Animotion, Philip Oakey & Susan Ann Sulley from The Human League and even Jake Shears and Ana Matronic from my beloved Scissor Sisters." -Pop, Rinse, Repeat
