Product Description
MIZZ 4/5
"Cynics were convinced that this sister act's comeback would be more cringey than ...er B*Witching but this is pretty good. We love their quirky style and sassy 'tude."
"..debut album from the twins from B*Witched is a right corker....with delicious electro dance tracks, this album is brilliant!"

CD Description
Debut album from twins Keavy and Edele (ex BWitched). Written and Produced by Barbarellas/Yoad Nevo (Sugababes, Girls Aloud, PSB). Fresh from Boyzone tour. TV and press galore. Barbarellas are Keavy and Edele Lynch. 15 years ago (when in their mid-teens) as one half of BWitched they were the first girl band to have 4 consecutive no1 singles, sold millions of albums around the world, toured with NSync Britney et al. Now they have transformed form guilty pleasure into a sassy and sexy electro pop duo. They have written the album with top producer Yoad Nevo – Edele herself a former part of the Xenomania writing team. First and set up single Body Rock secured them appearances on Lorraine, Studio 5 Live, Vanessa, 5:19, Chart Show TV: a top 15 club hit, and a raft of press from the Mail to the Sun and back. Tipped by everyone from The Star to Heat and Popbitch – proving that their sound is fresh and relevant for 2011, whilst they’re famous enough to grab prestigious tv slots. The Boyzone tour is seeing them play to over150000 people. The album comes out on their own label – with a full team of industry professionals behind it, headed by ex Sony CEO Paul Burger. Initial plot coming together – lined up so far : Alan Titchmarsh, Something For The Weekend and a return visit to Daybreak/Lorraine. Vid preview on Spotlight Set up single Body Rock primed the audience. Phase 2 will repeat this formula – blogs, exclusives, and the Boyzone tour to boost numbers, and targeted online epress and promo around regional touring, tv performances, and radio play. Steve Wright Show penciled in so far. Closer Magazine spring/summer feature, OK ‘food’ feature, The Star, Daily Mail ‘family’ interview, sexy-shot features in News of the World FHM, Daily Record interview.

It's been a long, long time since B*witched ruled the singles charts (about 15, in fact), but the twins, Keavy and Edele Lynch, are back with a new album, off the back of two single releases, in an effort to reclaim a place at the top of the charts. After all, they were the first girl band to have four consecutive No. 1 singles.
And the comeback singles weren't half bad, all electropoppy and dancey, complete with a slightly silly image revamp (imagine GaGa meets Noel Fielding). They made the album with producer Yoad Nevo, whose done time with Sugababes, Sophie Ellis Bextor and the Pet Shop Boys. And let's not forget that Edele wrote songs, along with Xenomania for Girls Aloud and Sugababes. So, there's plenty of poptastic experience at work here.
And for the most part, it's good stuff. The music fits snugly into a late ere Britney meets Lady GaGa electropop vibe, something that the singles, 'Body Rock' and 'Night Mode' indicated would be the case. There are another couple of single possibilities as well, with the splendid 'Turn Me On', the best of them, along with the big ballad, 'Kiss From A Ghost'. And if GaGa fans get a hold of 'Big', they'll end up very moist indeed.
However, there are a few clunkers along for the ride as well, with `Faith In Me', a dire ballad, and 'Tip It' is dreadful. They break up the flow of the album, and do sound like less good versions of songs you've already heard. But factor in good Scandipop tunes like 'The Idea', and there are more good points than bad points.
If this was an album by a new band, they'd be getting plenty of plaudits, but in a world of build them up, knock them down, it's going to be an uphill struggle for Barbarellas.
