“Viva Las Vegas” by Elvis Presley, covered by the Dead Kennedys.
For this week’s pick, we tune into “Viva Las Vegas”, originally performed and recorded by the one and only Elvis the Pelvis for his musical film under the same name, followed by the Dead Kennedy’s thrasher tribute to the King released on their 1980’s album Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables.
While the cover still holds onto the original’s melody, DK frontman Jello Biafra takes Las Vegas’s quintessential charm and ranchy reputation a step further by replacing some of the lyrics in verses 2 & 3 with references to drug use. The gambling narrator admits, “Even if I ran out of speed, boy/ I wouldn’t sleep a minute away”. With a faster tempo and the addition of scandalous lyrics, the Dead Kennedys’ certainly offer a fun new spin on a soundtrack for a trip to Sin City.

You know your profession is lit when you consider organizing your job perk merch by colour ... 👌
Shout-out to my old boss Blair (Siren Records) for taking the task of naming these killer colours like ' 🍑 N Regalia Marble' for The Claypool Lennon Delirium’s Monolith of Phobos (ATO Records) & 💀 -Deathmask Gray Marble for The Casket Girls’ The Night Machines (Graveface Records).💥🎶😏🎵💥
Currently promoting both records to college, non-commerical and community radio stations via my job (Distiller Promo).
