Name that mid-'90s Scottish Noise Rock band (SOLVED)

Been googling myself silly but I still can't find them. Think their name began with a P but don't hold me to that.  They switched between a guy and a girl singer, with the guy being an unhinged screamy bloke who prob'ly grew up feral in some abandoned Highlands farm, while the girl was a bit more demure and melodic.  Remember they had a track at the end of one of their albums where the audience bum-rushed the stage and started screaming into the mic

A thousand salaams or a fuck you ya useless fecks in advance!

No, no, it's Prolapse, for sure!  Guess the rest of the band were English toffs but that bloke's definitely as Scottish as can be. Thanks!! Prolapse.  You'd think not a name you could easily forget.

And I think I was confusing seeing them play this track live (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2qroI-VWDNY).  In the gig I went to it wasn't just the two of them hurling insults at each other, they got all of us to go onstage and insult them too!

I loved that little era of spiky, motoriky bands like Th' Faith Healers, Moonshake and them.  Ta again, chveik!

(Highly recommend Prolapse's The Italian Flag and Pointless Walks to Dismal Places now I can remember who they are).

One of Holmes' shorter mysteries, then.

One of my favourites. Ghosts of Dead Aeroplanes is a stunning album, too, maybe a little less spikey and abrasive overall than its predecessors...
