"Bitches" was the one and only single from Frankenstein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy, the third album by American electronic rock wiseguys Mindless Self Indulgence, released in 2000. Its hook is borrowed: the track leans hard on a sample of the opening riff from Siouxsie and the Banshees' "Happy House", which is why Siouxsie Sioux and Steven Severin share the writing credit with Jimmy Urine.
Urine sings it, and he produced and arranged it with James Galus; Chris Flam recorded it and Lloyd Puckitt mixed. The result is snotty, jittery and gleefully rude. It comes from the band's last studio album with Vanessa YT on bass, and even the packaging was a wind-up: the back cover starred out nearly every vowel in the song titles, rude or not, and listed them in alphabetical order.
