Bio
“Yes, our name is stupid, and no, we don’t care. A band name is a just a brand name like McDonalds. Our name neither effects nor reflects the music we play. It is unimportant to us.”
So states guitarist/vocalist Leah Hinton. Hinton formed El Schlong in Dunedin, New Zealand in 2003 along with fellow music student Nick Baldwin on bass. They cut their teeth in the city’s DIY student punk/metal scene before moving to the country’s capital in 2005.

What a fun, technically brilliant, obscure and random album. This is freaking fantastic. I wish there were more groups that take the path you have. I wish you all well.

“It seems like ages since El Schlong released their groundbreaking album The Baddies Are Coming in 2008. The band described that release as “like Satan in the bath puzzled by the ginger pube on the soap.” Despite their quirkiness El Schlong is a band you should take very seriously. Their latest release entitled Time/Place is a veritable smorgasbord of audible delights, which I suggest you indulge in immediately. Thankfully Time/Place is a continuance of everything good about the bands previous releases, and then some. The sheer scope of the album buries the listener in a tomb of unequivocal musical bliss and must be experienced to be believed. EL Schlong’s preceding moments of awkwardness have been replaced by confident and proficient musicianship, darker and heavier than ever before................
