What Else Is In The Teaches of Peaches?

I'm looking for musical suggestions that might help me ... fuck the pain away.
Imagine a virtual stripper pole, with that post-1999 ubiquitous Matrix dripping green effect, the only brass in evidence the chutzpah of the exotic dancer in question. I am looking for music with the down-low buzzing tickle you heard lurking under PJ Harvey's "Down By the Water," as lo-fi and unclean in production as a trashed chopper. Electrosleaze coming in over barely-modified square waves like a cheap inverter would make. I'm looking for tunes one could conceivably dance to without gobbling down pills and standing on a jackhammer. Ladytron isn't filthy enough. This should sound like the background music to having unsafe sex with a complete stranger while under the influence of so many narcotics you didn't realize you were about to enjoy some Thai ladyboy.
Touchstone sounds: Lords of Acid, Lust; random bits of TKK; "Frank Sinatra" by Miss Kittin and The Hacker; and of course Peaches' demurely-titled "Fuck the Pain Away." Oddly, none of Peaches' other stuff quite does it for me.
I'm trying to stay away from music where the letters BPM prominently feature on the album cover; I'm avoiding boys in mesh shirts with amyl nitrates; I don't want stuff where it sounds like it is for beepy, clean robots to listen to while they antiseptically beam Bluetooth codes at each other.
Make me unclean.

- Wooden Shjips are good for this, but there's no lyrical content usually. The song I'm thinking of is Shrinking Moon for You, it's got a slightly better beat than a lot of their YouTube stuff.
- Similarly Holy Fuck is good for this sort of dirty gritty music, but it is a little BPM-ish.
- The Butthole Surfers are good for this too, particularly stuff from Electriclarryland (Birds & Cough Syrup are two that come to mind)
- Jesus and Mary Chain is sort of the opium version of some of this stuff. Fuzzy but a little lovely, maybe not raw enough.
- Fu Manchu similarly, a little poppy but a very fuzzy sound and can really get going
- L7? Songs like Shitlist and they do a good cover of Let's Lynch the Landlord
- X used to be good for this back in the Los Angeles days but that may be a sort of archaic vibe now.
- The Reverend Horton Heat and the Cramps are a good psychobilly/shockabilly pair - they're a little lyric-heavy but the lyrics are pure sleaze in a lot of ways even when the music may be a little toe-tappin.

"I'm Coming Down" on Trans Am's Red Line album is a favorite of mine.
"The Pink Room" on the Twin Peaks- Fire Walk With Me soundtrack is sleazy, though perhaps not quite matching with your touchstones.

Response by poster: I tried X, actually went to a show of their not long ago - so bad I left. I actually like Jessamyn's suggestions, but I'm looking for something a little more ... electronic. Just like it was crappy electronic, some beat to hell Casio that got waterlogged one night and has never sounded the same.
Actually, "The Pink Room" is pretty good. Like we're back at One-Eyed Jacks.

I love this kind of stuff. Try Vitalic - for starters 'White Labels', and 'Soulshaker'. I have a great mix that includes a lot of Vitalic's stuff as well as 'Stock Exchange', and it's perfect.

Just about everything by Goldfrapp is sleazy.
Lies! Only the middle albums (Black Cherry + Supernature) are even the least bit sleazy. Way more electro than sleaze. More burlesque than anything. Definitely not lo-fi in any case. "Strict Machine" will likely be the best take-away song for your purposes. A few Frapp remixes on "We Are Glitter" are heavily electroclashy, too. Nothing too fitful, though.
Best I have is Emilie Simon - I Just Wanna be Your Dog [YouTube]. This is more clashy than the album version, but even that is pretty raw. Unfortunately, it's only tangential to the rest of her music.
Thanks for asking. This list is wicked.

Massive Attack - Angel came to mind (already mentioned). At one point this was voted best album to bump uglies to according to some publication I used to read (can't remember which).
Also other trip-hop derivatives: Tricky's Maxinquaye and Pre-Millenium Tension ("I'll fuck you in the ass/Just for a laugh/With the quick speed/I'll make your nose bleed" sung sweetly on "Abbaon Fat Track"), Portishead, etc.

There's always Lil' Louis' French Kiss from way back in the 80s. Because this is so old there are about 5 million remixes of it extant, but one of my favourites is the jungle version of French Kiss by Ed Rush and Optical (just heard it now on random play so how's that for synchronicity)?

I'm making this part small because I'm hesitant to let this golden cat out of the bag, but for the sake of helping out: I enthusiastically recommend that you poke around at EPITONIC; it lets you stream (and download) songs from a wide variety of mostly independent bands making really awesome music. You know, sort of like MeMu, but with maybe more pretense and a lot more hair wax.

Kelis f/Nas - In Public - a+++ electrosleaze
Although it does contain possibly the worst couplet of all time:
Seconding that Princess Superstar is sleaze on toast. The electro of Perfect Exceeder might sound a little clean for your tastes but its soul is dirty. Also Buck 65.

The pussy or the mouth, that is the questionAnd what is sleazy about Angel by Massive Attack?!
Like Shakespeare but my erection is the case here

Revolting Cocks, especially Attack Ships on Fire and their somewhat unforgettable cover of Rod Stewart's "If Ya Think I'm Sexy".

right now i'm listening to bauhaus' "dark entries," and wondering why i'm not, um, in your happy place, as it were.
but i can't believe nobody's mentioned chicks on speed. really? nobody? they're not nearly as bpm-ish as some folks fear.
there's also this song i heard somewhere, "cocaine sex?" i don't remember whose song it is, but that just might, um, fit your bill, as it were . . .

Maybe I don't understand what you're looking for but what about Lovage's, Music to Make Love to Your Old Lady By. Particularly Sex (I'm A), and Stroker Ace.

Anything by Dirty Sanchez. Specifically Get It Wet, Dig It, Fucking on the Dance Floor, and possibly Tranny Sex as well. Bonus points when you realise that she isn't actually a she.
deejay jaydee, you're probably thinking of Renegade Soundwave.

This is an awesome thread! People have already suggested a lot of what I was going to say, so I'll contribute some Raymond Watts-age. What's available on Youtube, at a glance:
Pig - Painiac, The Sick
Schwein - You're My Disease (poppy, but fun)
Schaft - The Hero Inside
There's lots more where that came from. Look for any mid-'90s and newer Pig, and I think Schwein and Schaft only had an album each.

I just came back in to say that "Turn It Up" by Robots In Disguise, linked somewhere above, is absolutely pure smoking hot sex.

Chicks on speed, Tiga, Vitalic, older Ladytron...
Sounds to me like you're looking for Electroclash.
Yes, I know everybody hates the name/catagory, but hey, it's better than nothing...

Eugh. Not sexy. I'd be distracted by the deadpan German voices.
However, Les Georges Leningrad.

'One Night in NYC' by the Horrorist is a classic.
There's some pretty raunchy stuff on the compilation 'Suck It And See' but I guess that's more lyrical content.
