TENDERLOIN

Video by Glen Meadmore





That’s polio survivor and transvestite, Goddess Bunny, doing lip-synching duties on this debut video for ‘The Golden One’ from Berlin-based supergroup Tenderloin. 
Not to be confused with the infamous neighborhood in San Francisco which has long been home to junkies and gender outlaws, Tenderloin is an art-rock-cum-krautrock band with Vaginal Creme Davis, Joel Gibb (of Hidden Cameras fame) and 19-year-old Dagmar Hofpfisterei, the daughter of Christiane F. (the most famous heroin addict in Germany of course).

They don’t sound like anything you’ve ever heard before. On one hand, you’ve got Vag up front on the glockenspiel and lead vocals, occasionally reciting lyrics from Oscar Wilde’s ‘Salome’. And then you’ve got Joel…on drums (and sometimes vocals).
