ELVIS JUST LEFT THE BUILDING was
formed in Esch/Alzette in Feb.'89 by four longtime friends interested in
underground music.
The band is considered as the first underground/alternative
band of the Grand Duchy. After several month of developing their sound
in a rehearsal-room of the then selfruled Schluechthaus ( Kulturfabrik
), they played a first gig in May'90 in the KuFa. Furhter gigs followed
in Luxemburg and in the neighbour countries.
The bands music was best described as Grunge-Core.
The songs being too fast just to be Grunge and too noisy
just to be Hardcore.
ELVIS JUST LEFT THE BUILDING paved the way and inspired
a lot of young teenagers to start their own bands like:
BECAUSE or WOUNDED KNEE.
The band existed from 1989 until Oct.'92 and released
a flexdisc 7" EP with four songs as well as several songs on long deleted
cassette-compilations that were sold within the Schluechthaus-Underground-Scene
at the time.
After they broke up, Pattex joined NO MORE and WOUNDED
KNEE!
Vic, Marco and Sloggy formed GAUGED
in 1993.
