Bow Wow Wow’s Girl Bites Dog: Your Compact Disc Pet is a lively and intriguing collection of tracks that captures the band’s unique blend of new wave and post-punk energy. With songs like “Louis Quatorze,” “Mile High Club,” and their take on “Fools Rush In,” the album exudes a playful irreverence that feels distinctly British and unmistakably 80s.
My introduction to Bow Wow Wow came through Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette soundtrack, where their track fit perfectly into the film’s eclectic mix of modern and historical aesthetics. It’s a connection that gave me a new appreciation for their sound—and honestly, it’s a great movie I’ll happily revisit soon.
