It was formed by guitarist Rogers Stevens, bassist Brad Smith, drummer Glen Graham, rhythm guitarist Christopher Thorn, and vocalist Shannon Hoon. The band was active from its inception in 1990 to Shannon Hoon's death in 1995. After Hoon's death, the band went on hiatus before officially disbanding in 1999. In 2006, they reformed with a new singer, Travis Warren, with whom they have toured and written a new album. Their biggest hit was "No Rain"

Darker and Edgier: The band followed up their very successful Self-Titled Album with the much darker Soup, which dealt with the subject matter of murder, suicide and serial killers. It didn't sit well with some — especially those who had used the first album to do nothing but put "No Rain" on repeat. Even among fans, the shift from the more light, almost hippieish jam band feel of the first album to the darker and heavier feel of the second took some getting used to. The shift in tone is not only for creative reasons, but the increasingly erratic behavior and near constant drug use of primary songwriter Shannon Hoon. The album was also recorded in New Orleans, and the influence of the music and culture of that city on the album is salient.

Black Comedy: "Skinned," which is told from Ed Gein's point of view.

Bookends: Not counting the hidden track in the pregap, Soup begins and ends with instrumental brass pieces in the style of a New Orleans jazz funeral.

Car Song: "Galaxie" is about Shannon Hoon's 1964 Ford Galaxie.
