Electric Love Hogs were a short-lived American funk rock band formed in San Diego, California in 1991. The band's lineup consisted of John Feldmann (vocals, guitar), Dave Kushner (guitar), Donni Campion (guitar), Kelly LeMieux (bass) and Bobby Hewitt (drums, percussion). They released one self-titled album in 1992, followed by a tour of the United States and United Kingdom, before they disbanded the following year.
John Feldmann, Kelly LeMieux and Bobby Hewitt formed Electric Love Hogs, as a cover band, in San Diego in 1991. Their name was chosen as a satirical swipe at the L.A. glam metal scene of the late '80s. They soon added guitarists Dave Kushner, formerly of Wasted Youth, and Donni Campion to the lineup. They recorded their debut album with producer Mark Dodson, though Mötley Crüe's Tommy Lee co-produced two songs. The album featured contributions from Stephen Perkins of Jane's Addiction, John Norwood Fisher of Fishbone and Bronx Style Bob among others. The same year, Kushner contributed guitars to the song "Punk It Up" for the Infectious Grooves debut album The Plague That Makes Your Booty Move...It's the Infectious Grooves, also produced by Dodson, released in 1991 before touring with the band for a short time.
Electric Love Hogs was released in 1992 through London Records. The band toured the US with Stone Temple Pilots and L.A. Guns while they also toured the United Kingdom with Ugly Kid Joe. By 1993, Electric Love Hogs disbanded.
