New Music Spotlight: Elephant Stone


Don't let the band name fool you, Montreal's Elephant Stone is NOT a Stone Roses cover band -- they are one of the vital acts in today's psych scene. To date the trio has released three solid and swoonworthy full length albums -- The Three Poisons (2014), Elephant Stone (2013), and The Seven Seas (2009) -- and their fourth album, Ship of Fools, is coming later this year. While the band hasn't announced the official release date for Ship of Fools yet, they have premiered three singles from the album -- "The Devil's Shelter," "Where I'm Going," and "Andromeda."  All three songs are so infectious and glorious that you almost have to drool knowing even more Elephant Stone songs will be unleashed soon.  Prepare yourself for awesomeness and stream all three singles below:

"The Devil's Shelter," released last November, is a slice of excellence and features the awesome Alex Maas of the Black Angels!  View the official video below and download the single from iTunes & Amazon:



"Where I'm At" is by far the catchiest, synthiest, and grooviest of the three tracks -- you won't be able to sit still while this jam is playing! Download from iTunes (so far no listing on Amazon):



"Andromeda," the sublime Beatles-esque third single from Ship of Fools was released in March. Download from iTunes & Amazon:
