The band’s latest full-length will arrive on September 04 via Known Accomplice, following on from 2024’s ‘Messed Up’.

On the release of ‘ELEPHANT’, frontman Taylor Perkins has shared: 

“We’ve made a few records now, but ELEPHANT feels very special to us. We were largely left alone to make this one with very little distractions. We were also on a prolific writing streak (still are) and going into this one had over 25 song demos or ruff recordings to polish and workshop. If Elephant didn’t sonically set the tone it certainly set the bar, we’ll always try to write albums that have depth and represent who we are as a band, so it feels like to us, we’ve created an album that is just that. This album is like an elephant, It’s an album about that really balances power with sensitivity, and strength with softness.”

Take a listen to the album’s wicked title track below.

Speaking on that stomping new tune, Taylor has said:

“This is the heaviest song we’ve written to date. We wanted its presence on the album to feel undeniable, like an Elephant. It’s big, gritty and moves with weight. The message is equally heavy and dark, It’s about the building rage addressing acts of violence and intimidation committed by someone so pathetic, insecure, and overcompensating for the power they never deserved or ever really had.”
