JACQUI VIXEN and JOHNNY NAVARRO
Formed in 2002 the band moved into the ever more fashionable
east-end of London in a bid to get away from London's jaded
Camden scene and began writing.
January 2003 they released debut album Rust Garden on
their own November Tenth records label, so named because November
Tenth 2002 was the day they wrote their anthem Black Leather
Jesus one of the most consistently popular songs in the UK
goth and alternative clubs. The band then set about becoming the
most hard working band on the scene. Clocking up over 100 gigs so
far they have shared the stage with amongst others: The
Meteors, Jayne County and the Electric Chairs, Andi Sex Gang,
Cinema Strange, Bella Morte, New Days Delays, Last Days Of Jesus,
Frankenstein, The Horrorpops, The 5678's, Theatre Des Vampires,
Inkubus Sukubus, Queen Adreena, Bloody Dead and Sexy, and
many many more.
2004 saw the release of the critically acclaimed
"Disgraceland" which featured the classic DP song She's
Not America which featured on the German Pagan Love
Songs compilation and the bands played at the release party
for it in Bochum with Frankenstein in August 2004.
Relentless live work began to pay off and in a very short space
of time the band became a big live draw. The house band at
fashionable London Deathrock club Dead and Buried they
found themselves by the beginning of 2005 headlining over 80's
legends Ausgang and able to enthral 1200 people at the
April Whitby Gothic Weekend. The release of Sonic Reducer
gave Devilish Presley their 3rd track which DJ's in the UK ,
Europe and the USA all wanted to play. Having secured sponsorship
from UK clothing company Toxico the band now gained an
endorsement deal with USA companyCoffin Case who supply
gear to all the top US bands.
