BIOGRAPHY
Formed in Zurich after a handful of girls saw the Sex Pistols play, Kleenex brought together Marlene Marder on guitar, Klaudia Schifferle on bass, Lislot Hafner on drums and Regula Sing on vocals, trading punk's angst for clever, happy-go-lucky songs. Signed to Rough Trade, they released the single 'Ain't You' in November 1978, but a 1979 trademark dispute with Kimberly-Clark forced a name change to LiLiPUT. Two further singles hit the UK Indie Chart before a self-titled album in 1982 and 'Some Songs' in 1983, after which the band split. Kill Rock Stars later compiled their studio work on a 2001 double CD, followed by a live anthology in 2010.
