Seattle's SOILED DOVES are history -- although the group's brief existence in no way reflects its significance in the scheme of things. The band emerged in the late 1990s as new-wave upstarts THE VOGUE, and by 2001 had mutated (or, rather, condensed) into the 4-piece SOILED DOVES. Three of the four Doves were soon to be members of the critically acclaimed CHROMATICS, while vocalist Johnny was on loan from local heroes THE BLOOD BROTHERS. Soiled Doves released a single on Arizona's collectable King of the Monsters label, then ventured into Seattle's Paradox Studio to record a full-length. Before the album was finished, it was decided that the group would lay itself to rest -- Johnny's commitment to the Brothers was compromising his time, and the band was eager to get on with touring, etc. So, after a single west coast tour in the summer of 2001, SOILED DOVES called it a day.
