Haha, these guys even have an awful Streets of Rage like game on their website!

Sweet True Lies, epic power metal song which feels like something from the late 80s.

lindemann - allesfreser

The video definitely harkens back to the days of saturday morning toons & toy commercials, and the music also feels like something from around the late 80s.

Cannot make my up my mind on Soap&Skin : Sugarbread. On the one hand I feel genuinely disturbed by it, on the other hand those intense emotions make it really memorable. Well, anyways it does not leave me cold, so it has some quality to it.

This is a fun one: My Boobs Are OK

There's actually more. I thought it hit the limit right there, but no: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zE4KowTk0C4

Definitely more explicit than I would have expected from something from the early 80s, but gets tedious fast. It's clearly banking on shock value instead of quality, just repeating 2 lines over and over. It's like a 6 minute version of the gobots theme

It's alrite to...

P. S. I never thought something like that existed in the early 80s... I mean, this shit beats modern gangsta rap silly.

Devil Went Down to Georgia
I remember when this vid came out. I was surprised primus did a cover of this song, but it was a good cover & the video was cool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9uk9IcoQ0w

I still like the original song that I grew up with better though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sh7BZf7D5Bw

Heh, nice jedi parody: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQ5HmMH2eHo

Wow, that is so Japanese that it almost hurts. As always it makes next to no sense without context. Must be some kind of lucky biting bug?

Plus it reminds me of this one: Katamari Damacy (btw: the game itself is awesome too)

^That reminds me of this one: Bottom Biting Bug (japanese)

Well, here is one that has been going through my head for weeks. I blame my nephews for it, because they insisted on watching it over and over. And over and over. How come that children cannot get enough of that crap? Worst thing about it: The song does have just the right rhythm and beat to hum along to.

Der Pavianpopo

Not bad, but lacks a bit of the ambience of either the original or the Zola Jesus cover. You know that weird industrial sounds in the background that make Eraserhead so disturbing.


This one on the other hand hits the nail squarely on the head. And no, I did not know it so far, but it goes right on my Best of 2019 playlist.

And to add something new (well come to think of it not that new, but you know what I mean), yet stick to the cover version theme: Crimson and Clover by Joan Jett. To me this is the definitive version.

Though this almost cover version is how I came to know the song's riff.

And speaking more or less of Jarvis Cocker and to go one step further: How about C*nts are still running the world?. Nice anecdote: I have the vinyl "The Jarvis Cocker Record" and it has an actually hidden track which I noticed only months after playing the thing over and over. One day there dropped a single sized LP out of the record, and oh boy was this kind of intriguing and mysterious getting to hear that song. Best thing about it: It sounded great too, and the lyrics instantly stuck to my head.

Spinvis - Mare Frigoris

Totally love both the song and the video, though the latter may be fan-made, I really have no clue.

The only cover of the Lady in the Radiator's song I know:

Tuxedomoon - In Heaven

And speaking of Marchello Mastroiani:

Silicon Dream - Marcello the Mastroiani

Not that you don't know it, but I thought you'd be curious to see the 2019 fan-made video

Reminded me a bit of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vhgmGF7QQo
