A brilliant (read: hilarious) cover of one of the few songs by Britney Spears that I actually enjoy in its original form. The video cracked me up the first I saw it, and I hope you’ll experience the same thing! [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMy0KPz8Vvo]

Dværgen (The Sinful Dwarf)
I discovered The Sinful Dwarf (1973) in one of these “top 10 most shocking, weird, disturbing, nasty movies of all-time” YouTube videos. As I had never heard of this movie title, let alone of the film genre “dwarfsploitation” itself, I decided to give it a try. To be honest, I am not even sure if […]
Sweetheart Come
Has it ever occurred to you how little you know about your country and the people in it? Day after day we see edited, squeaky clean versions of our neighbours, never aware of what’s really going on inside of them. In a tiny and wealthy place like Luxembourg, where everyone seems to know everyone and […]
Sleepers’ Guilt – Road Of Emptiness
Today I bring you the second highlight of the month in the national metal scene: Sleepers’ Guilt‘s second release Road Of Emptiness! Now, if you have read my review of their first endeavor you know that I wasn’t a fan of the vocals, but I liked the instrumental work. Earlier this year the band parted […]
Devildriver – Winter Kills
The California groove machine Devildriver is back with its sixth album Winter Kills! After their previous record Beast which is, as the name suggests, their heaviest output packed with anger and aggression, the band has decided to go back to their roots and take their signature style to a new level. In case you have […]
Trash Monday LXXXIV
I didn’t know that He-Man had a Glam Rock band called Thor and that my good friend, Jochen Taubert (Piratenmassaker, Gabelstapler-Klaus kehrt zurück – Jetzt muss der Chef fahren), directed music video clips back in the olden days. [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43bWpRgSdUA]
Tucker & Dale vs Evil
Tucker and Dale, two simple-minded but sweet textbook hillbillies from West Virginia, are headed to their vacation cabin in the woods. On the way there they meet a bunch of snooty college kids who suspect them to be murderers because of their lumberjack physique, and what was supposed to be a peaceful trip involving some […]
Eyehategod – In The Name Of Suffering
The recent passing of Eyehategod’s drummer extraordinaire Joey Lacaze has had me revisiting all of their full-length releases from the very beginnings to the latest one this week. On this first occasion of writing for El Gore, I’m going to address one of my personal favorites from all of their musical productions, and also the […]
Deap Vally – Sistrionix
One drum kit, one guitar, two ladies and eleven tracks that make one thing pretty damn clear: this band has way more cojones than The Black Keys, not to speak of virtuous and filigree songs. But let’s put aside comparisons to more or less boring two man garage rock and have a listen to Deap […]
Asking Alexandria – From Death To Destiny
I am a person that is very fond of routine and I dislike sudden major changes in my life, while that might be considered a strength or a weakness depending on your personal attitude, I am absolutely in favor of change, read evolution, in music. There is nothing I like more than a band stepping […]
