Well?: Electro-gothic punk ala The Damned.
And damned good it is, too. The rockiness helps break up the potential pretentiousness that could have killed off the songs, and the mixture of male / female vocals adds an extra dimension to them.
If such a category exists, then the Vampire Biker Babes are most definetly Gothabilly - and if doesnt exist, then Im going to invent it as of now. "Creepy Baby Man" in particular sounds like a slightly depressed version of the New Bomb Turks, or a very happy Bauhaus, depending on how you want to look at it.
A great introduction to a band I'd never even heard of a few days ago.
Overall: MP3's alone have made me want to check out an album. Which is a pretty big compliment!
