RELEASE
Queen Elephantine, modal psychedelic doom, presents their third album:
a long song in three parts, Garland of Skulls—kapālamālā. They
have also released several EPs, including splits with Sons of Otis and
Elder. Formed in Hong Kong in 2006 and migrated to USA, the band is
currently based between NYC and RI. Looking for release, live, and
press opportunities.
"With low strung guitars and almost slow motion music – it has a
force and strength all its own. As artistic as it is Heavy, this band
commands that it gets and needs to have respect. To put this band into
some sort of perspective, I would have to put them sort of what Pink
Floyd or Hawkwind would be if they went metal while on serious rounds
of downers while experimenting with some instruments from India.
All three tracks… are forceful yet very melancholy, with this
overall bleak feeling that nears the bottom of pure desperation in
every word sung. It is so spacey, yet it pulls you in to its dank
vortex and leaves you suspended in a void of sheer blackness –
yet leads you to a light... Pretty heavy shit.
My first experience with this truly unique band, left me needing and
wanting more of the same... 8/10"
—Daryl Adolph, Doom Mantia
