According to the liner notes, Deux Filles are Gemini Forque & Claudine
Coule. Not really!!!
Deux Filles are Colin Lloyd Tucker and Simon Fisher Turner. SFT says, "In
82, Colin and I left (The The) and formed our own label, 'Papier Mache.'
We made 2 LP's disguised as two French girls--'Deux Filles.' They sold
OK thru Rough Trade . . . "
The sound of the band resembles much of SFT's early work for Derek Jarman
(who is credited in the liner notes). Strange, haunting, obscure, sometime
experimental, sometimes folky creations.
