Введение
Soul Coughing — американская альтернативная рок-группа, состоящая из вокалиста и гитариста Майка Доути (также известного как М. Доути), клавишника и сэмплера Марка Дегли Антони, басиста Себастьяна Штейнберга и барабанщика Ювала Габая. Они создали преданную фан-базу и получили в основном положительные отзывы критиков. Стив Хьюи из AllMusic описал группу как «один из самых уникальных культовых коллективов 90-х, движимый потоком сознания в поэзии фронтмена М. Доути. Звук Soul Coughing был намеренно своеобразным сочетанием импровизационных джазовых грувов, необычных сэмплов, хип-хопа, электроники и шумного экспериментализма». Доути описал звучание группы как «глубокий слэккер-джаз». Группа распалась в 2000 году. Доути, Дегли Антони и Штейнберг участвовали в различных версиях композиции Джона Зорна «Cobra», появившись на альбоме Джона Зорна «Cobra: Live at the Knitting Factory» (записан в 1992 году, выпущен в 1995 году). В течение года после своего формирования группа подписала контракт с Slash Records, дочерней компанией Warner Bros. Records. Альбомы Irresistible Bliss и El Oso попали в чарт Billboard 200. Группа добилась умеренного успеха с синглами «Soundtrack to Mary» и «Super Bon Bon». В 1996 году Soul Coughing внесли свой вклад в благотворительный альбом о СПИДе Offbeat: A Red Hot Soundtrip, выпущенный Red Hot Organization. Также в 1996 году одна из песен группы, «Unmarked Helicopters», была включена в сборник Songs in the Key of X: Music from and Inspired by the X Files. Песни группы также вошли в саундтреки к фильмам «Бэтмен и Робин» («The Bug»), «Томми Бой» («Is Chicago, Is Not Chicago») и «Спаун» («A Plane Scraped Its Belly On A Sooty Yellow Moon» с участием Roni Size). Их песня «Super Bon Bon» была включена в саундтрек к видеоиграм Gran Turismo 2 в 1999 году, The Bigs 2 в 2009 году и сериалу Amazon Prime Reacher (телесериал), 2 сезон, 7 эпизод «The Man Goes Through». Песня «Circles» с альбома El Oso достигла 8-й строчки в чарте Billboard Alternative Songs.
Soul Coughing was an American alternative rock band composed of vocalist/guitarist Mike Doughty (also known as M. Doughty), keyboardist/sampler Mark Degli Antoni, bassist Sebastian Steinberg, and drummer Yuval Gabay. They developed a devout fanbase and garnered largely positive response from critics. Steve Huey of AllMusic described the band as "One of the most unique cult bands of the '90s Driven by frontman M. Doughty's stream of consciousness poetry, Soul Coughing's sound was a willfully idiosyncratic mix of improvisational jazz grooves, oddball samples, hip hop, electronics, and noisy experimentalism". Doughty described the band's sound as "deep slacker jazz". The group broke up in 2000. Doughty, Degli Antoni, and Steinberg all performed in versions of John Zorn's composition Cobra, appearing on John Zorn's Cobra: Live at the Knitting Factory (recorded 1992, released 1995). Within a year of its formation, the band was signed to Slash Records, a subsidiary of Warner Bros. Records. Irresistible Bliss and El Oso both reached the Billboard 200 albums chart. The band enjoyed minor hit singles with "Soundtrack to Mary" and "Super Bon Bon". In 1996, Soul Coughing contributed to the AIDS benefit album Offbeat: A Red Hot Soundtrip, produced by the Red Hot Organization. Also in 1996, one of the group's songs, "Unmarked Helicopters", was included in the Songs in the Key of X: Music from and Inspired by the X Files. The band also placed songs in the soundtracks to the films Batman & Robin ("The Bug"), Tommy Boy ("Is Chicago, Is Not Chicago") and Spawn ("A Plane Scraped It’s Belly On A Sooty Yellow Moon", featuring. Roni Size). Their song "Super Bon Bon" was included on the soundtrack for the video games Gran Turismo 2 in 1999, The Bigs 2 in 2009 and the Amazon Prime Series Reacher (TV series), Season 2, Episode 7, "The Man Goes Through". The song "Circles" from El Oso reached #8 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart,
Soul Coughing broke up in 2000. Mark Degli Antoni moved on to a career as a film score composer,
Lust in Phaze, a greatest hits compilation including a few B sides, was released in 2002. Rhino Records reissued Soul Coughing's three studio albums on 180 gram black vinyl in 2015, marking the first time Ruby Vroom had been pressed to vinyl. In 2017, Swedish record label Woah Dad! acquired Soul Coughing's back catalog from Slash Records. Soul Coughing was honored with a star on the outside mural of Minneapolis nightclub First Avenue, which recognizes performers who have played sold out shows or otherwise made major cultural contributions to the iconic venue. Receiving a star "might be the most prestigious public honor an artist can receive in Minneapolis", according to journalist Steve Marsh. Soul Coughing was especially popular in Minneapolis, thanks to airplay on alternative radio station Rev 105, and regularly performed there to audiences five to ten times larger than in other cities.

Soul Coughing была удостоена звезды на внешней стене ночного клуба First Avenue в Миннеаполисе, которая отмечает исполнителей, дававших аншлаговые концерты или внесших значительный вклад в культуру этого знакового заведения. По словам журналиста Стива Марша, получение звезды «может быть самой престижной публичной наградой, которую может получить артист в Миннеаполисе». Soul Coughing пользовалась особой популярностью в Миннеаполисе благодаря трансляциям на альтернативной радиостанции Rev 105 и регулярно выступала там перед аудиторией, в пять-десять раз превышающей количество зрителей в других городах.
