The group were formed by vocalist KatieJane Garside and guitarist Crispin Gray, who had previously collaborated in the celebrated but short-lived band Daisy Chainsaw. The band released four studio albums between 2000 and 2008, as well as the live album Live at the ICA, which was recorded at the Institute of Contemporary Arts.

Polly, pretty Polly, come go away with me Polly, pretty Polly, come go away with me Polly, get married, some pleasures to see She jumped up beside him and away they did go She jumped up beside him and away they did go Over the mountains and the valleys below Billy, oh, Billy, I'm afraid for my life Billy, oh, Billy, I'm afraid for my life I'm afraid you mean to *** me and leave me behind Polly, pretty Polly, you're guessing about right Polly, pretty Polly, you're guessing about right I've been digging your grave for the best part of your life He stabbed her through the heart and her hot blood did flow He stabbed her through the heart and her hot blood did flow And into the grave pretty Polly did go He threw a little dirt over her and started for home He threw a little dirt over her and started for home Leaving nobody there but the wild birds to moan A debt to the devil Billy must pay A debt to the devil Billy must pay For killing pretty Polly and running away Running away, away (Polly, pretty Polly, come go away with me) Running away, away (Polly, pretty Polly, come go away with me) Running away, away (Polly, pretty Polly, come go away with me) Running away, away (Polly, pretty Polly, come go away with me) Running away
