Pilot of Existence Thanks! Don’t like what Elder seems to be lately, but they used to sound kinda like this. But this has a totally different dynamic to the surrounding and engulfing wave that overtakes the riffs. Keep rockin!

Update, the new Elder album kicks ass. Y’all seem to be riding the same cosmic wave! Favorite track: Llao's Island.

Dale Barnett Big fat fuzzy riffage from a band that just comes across as “naturals”
Cool vocals too, I love it when a heavy band just jams and doesn’t have that “trying too hard to be heavy” vibe. FKN love Elk Witch 🔥 Favorite track: Llao's Island.

mcrugged This band has some special sauce. Excited about their next steps. This EP is very cool. Can't pick a favorite track. Rock on Oregon!
