Soft Kill

Soft Kill is an American band originally from Portland (Oregon) of post-punk revival. Also, they are one of the bands that have called themselves on their personal Facebook page as "sad rock", a new musical subgenre. Emerged from the post-punk scene, they have released five albums and several singles and EPs.

An Open Door (debut album) was one of the most prestigious releases of the last ten years of the post-punk genre, receiving excellent musical reviews. Bassist and singer of influential band in the 80s, The Chameleons, Mark Burgess took an interest in their music and he sponsored them for a tour around United States in addition to putting the voice on the song "On The Inside" of his fourth album Choke.

Soft Kill have been compared with major new wave bands such as Stone Roses, The Replacements and The Chameleons.
