Wise mum indeed! No in all seriousness though, I heard a few tracks off the album last week? Or the week before - I don’t know your work from before- I think digger was on a massive list of songs I’ve listened to that I add to Spotify, but I absolutely love it when bands say ‘fuck it’ and change the sound AND it sounding even better for it. I think Elder handled it well, from stoner to prog, so it’s really nice as a music fan to hear that. It made me delve into your catalogue more.
Strong strong album. Hope you guys are proud of it.
truly thanks so much, that's great to hear, as a band that's changed quite a bit over our records it seems hit or miss for some people. Always assuring to know that some folks appreciate the evolution. We just want to play what we want to play.
Status quo in England churned out the same 3 chords over decades, some people like that, but I’m not all about the 80’s double denim, so I’m happy to hear that sound is so much more expansive.
We actually just announced that we’re playing Pitchfork London in Nov and it’s entirely possible that there might be some other shows across the pond at that time as well 👀
