Random Elvis Cover of the Week

Random Elvis Cover of the Week

Elvis's birthday week is technically over, but I couldn't resist sharing my all-time favorite Elvis cover.

This is Automusik, singing "Hound Dog" at the Hi-Tone Cafe. The video quality isn't that great (and it's only part of the song), but you get the idea:

I especially love the "They said you had high class....they have lied to you."

Though they live in Austin, Texas now, Automusik got their start in Memphis. The conceptual band is fronted by a mad scientist type with a fake German accent. He's backed up by two goggle-wearing, robot-dancing "Female Rock Units".

Automusik: Remain Clean!

Their mostly electronic songs cover everything from beach parties, the joys of working and the eating of various meat products. They've also got a rather hilarious song about the usefulness of children called "Everything is for the Baby".

For more of their songs (including the full version of "Hound Dog"), check them out on Emusic or iTunes.
