Pretty Boy Floyd are the probably best example of a grunge causality, they
set out to make the ultimate band, they had it all, the songs, the looks, the video on MTV. Then as Grunge took over everything
came crashing down for them.. But not before the band made the album which sums up late 80's Glam Metal “Leather Boyz With Electric
Toyz”. Pretty Boy Floyd fronted by unique sounding vocalist
Steve Sex Summers, released their debut album in 1989, many of the song were written by the groups former
guitarist Ariel Stiles. Guitarist Kristy Krash Majors formerly of controversial
New York band Jett Blakk joined the fray replacing Stiles and contributed to some of
the song writing. After Grunge hit the band found themselves without a label, and consequently split. They would later reform in 1998 minus
bassist Vinnie Chas, and released an EP. Pretty Boy Floyd put
out Porn Stars a year later which contained re-recorded songs from the Leather Boyz
era and unreleased tracks. By 2003 Steve Sex Summers was the only original band member as Size Really Does Matter
was recorded under the Pretty Boy Floyd name. Currently
Pretty Boy Floyd is Steve Summers backed by the Peppermint Creeps;
there are rumours of a reunion with original members. The Pretty Boy Floyd legend lives on in cult form, among underground Glam communities,
if anybody tells you Leather Boyz With Electric Toyz, is a bad album, they are simply lying. |
