2013
With a name like A Fucking Elephant you really have to wonder. Formed in 2007, the New Jersey-based twosome (guitarist Matt Keys and drummer Greg Meisenberg), actually are not as off the wall as you would expect (given their name and all). Even with a song titled "I'm Addicted to Drugs & Sex and I Want You to Chok" (sic) I'm sure no one will blame me when I admit that I half expected this to be some sort of (fingernails on a chalkboard) noise/grind atrocity. Instead it's simply two tracks of instrumental garage rock that, while it might wallow in weirdness, is nothing that shocking. The material in question is the first new music from A Fucking Elephant in two years. The band's last release was a split full-length with El Drugstore. Incidentally, Nefarious Industries is the indie label formed by members from both bands and collectors would do well to note that, in addition to a digital release, there will be 250 copies released on black vinyl and 250 copies released on yellow vinyl. With a cover like that (courtesy of Eric Nyffeler/Doe-Eyed Design.) you just know people are not just going to buy this for the groovy music, but they are going to want to display the artwork as well for all to see!
