The group originally worked with Newcastle Punk label Slampt before signing to EMI . They disbanded on 15 October 1998 after a London Astoria gig, where Lauren closed the night by saying'' "We were Kenickie ... a bunch of fuckwits".'' Kenickie registered in the UK singles chart in the high 20s, their highest position being 24 with the single ''In Your Car'', and gained cult appeal after a well-received first album '' At The Club '', which charted at 9 in May 1997. A follow up album appeared in 1998, it was poorly recieved (although the Melody Maker rated it 8/10), selling badly, it also showcased a change in direction, away from punk pop to lounge music sound reminisant of Saint Etienne . After meeting them in New York, . They're a big, raw-boned bunch of fucking sex - all three of them and the boy. I hope they get good. I hope we're a good example to them, I hope this record's huge and then the big labels will start sniffing around and then those big fucking raw-boned sexy Newcastle girls will be huge and have Number Ones and there will be an Amazon planet the way I want it."'' Marie and Emmy-Kate went on to form a new band called . Their one-time touring keyboard player Tony O'Neill (known in the band as Elvis Wesley) is now an author, living in the US. DISCOGRAPHY Albums
