Dark jazz band founded in 1992 in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany. Bohren & Der Club Of Gore was formed by members of various grindcore/hardcore and death/doom metal bands. In their search for a unique sound, they started to play what they call doom ridden jazz music.

Initially the band was called Bohren. In 1993, the name was expanded to Bohren und Der Club of Gore as a link to the Dutch band Gore, which inspired Bohren to play instrumental music. in 1995 the name was altered to Bohren & Der Club of Gore.

The first real Bohren und Der Club of Gore release was a 1993 demo tape called Luder, Samba und Tavernen.
