The Androids are a rock band from Australia. Fronted by guitarist Tim Henwood (originally from The Superjesus), they released a single in 2002, "Do It With Madonna", which peaked at #4 in the Australia ARIA Singles Chart, and #15 in the UK Singles Chart. A second single, "Here She Comes" peaked at #15 in Australia, and there was also a third single, "Brand New Life" but it wasn't as successful. Their self-titled album debuted and peaked at #36 on the ARIA Albums Chart.
Though not a huge success internationally they are remembered for the music video for "Do it With Madonna" which featured drag queens dressed as Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, P!nk, Kylie Minogue and, of course, Madonna.
The song "Here She Comes" was featured on the American Wedding soundtrack and the song "Do It With Madonna" was featured on The O.C..
After touring from late 2002 through 2004, the band has spent a majority of 2005 working on a second album.
On 8 August 2006, the webmaster of the band's website stated that "Tim's working on some new Androids tunes. Hopefully we'll get to hear some of the new stuff before the end of the year.... "
