Virgins O.R Pigeons Are A Trio From Greece Comprising Of Pierrot Steph And Sitras. The Three Of Them Who Had Number Of Collaborations In Various Music Projects In The Past Decided To Form A Band Together And Combine Their Versatile Backgrounds. In 2002 They Started Experimenting With Digital And Analogue Sounds And United Their Passion For Technology And Fired Up Guitars Hence Creating A Hybrid Of Electronic Music With A Dark Twist. Their Songs Are Ranging From Frenzic Aggressive EBM To More Down Tempo Yet Still Powerful Anthems With Hypnotic And Often Haunting Melodies. They Believe In Having A Strong And Eye-Catching Stage Presence To Compliment Their Music And Drawing Elements From Visual Kei They Adjust It To Fit Their Own Identity And Perception Of “performance” And “image” In General. Starting In Greece A Country With A Limited Number Of Bands In The Greater Genre Of Industrial And Electro They Immediately Stood Out From The Crowd With Their First Ever Live Performance Which Was On October 30th 2006 At Club Underworld Athens With Japanese Band BLOOD. They Headlined Their First Gig Soon After At The 8ball Club In Thessaloniki Which Proved Out A Huge Success. The Band Was Discovered By Japanese Independent Label Cure And In March 2007 Their Debut Album Titled “Place No Reliance” Was Released. As Summarized By The Band Itself This Album Is “…A Manifesto For The Masses A Sinister Antidote For Your Spiritual Decadence…”. And Indeed It Is. Virgins O.R Pigeons Made Their First International Tour In Late Summer Appearing Live In Northern Europe And Were Welcomed With Great Enthusiasm. They Also Collaborated With BLOOD On A Number Of Remixes. One Of Them Was Included In The EP “Dead-Hearted” Cure 2007 Which Was Sold Out In A Couple Of Weeks After Its Release. More Remixes Will Be Included In Near Future Releases. A New Version Of Their Hit Song “Existe” The “Violated Virgin Remix” Is Being Included In The Upcoming Alfa Matrix Compilation Endzeit Bunkertracks 4CD Boxset Act III Out On December 7th By Alfa Matrix .
