The Mentors are an American heavy metal band, known for their deliberate shock rock lyrics. Originally formed in Seattle, Washington in May 1976, they relocated to Los Angeles, California in 1979. The band garnered attention both from noted hard rock acts and pro-censorship movements such as the Parents Music Resource Center, but the death of drummer and lead singer Eldon Hoke ("El Duce") in 1997 brought them unprecedented attention. The band remains active today with a different line-up: Sickie Wifebeater (Eric Carlson) on lead guitar, Dr Heathen Scum (Steve Broy) on bass guitar, Cousin Fister (Bryan) on rhythm guitar, and John Christopher on drums.

  • The Mentors est un groupe américain de heavy metal, originaire de Seattle, Washington. Le groupe se forme en mai 1976, et joue souvent avec des cagoules de bourreaux, et accessoires sadomasochistes. Les paroles de leur chansons sont extrêmement dégradantes envers les femmes, misogynes et sexistes. Le chanteur du groupe, Eldon « El Duce » Hoke, meurt écrasé par un train alors qu'il était ivre, quelques jours après avoir affirmé lors d'une entrevue, la proposition de $50 000 de Courtney Love pour tuer son époux Kurt Cobain. Malgré cet évènement, le groupe continue ses activités. (fr)
