Elk’s premiere EP “Cocoon” is intimate to say the least. Sounding more like bedroom demos rather than fully produced songs, their tracks manage to capture something nostalgic and inviting that many bands tend to loose in the recording studio. With a track like “Trails”, Elk shows us how lo fi and desserty that they can get, creating what can only be described as a wild west show down put to music. Oher tunes like “Mother Earth” display a dreamier side to them, revealing at times a noisier side reminiscent of The Flaming Lips. These ambient lo fi folk rockers are really on to something and we are really looking forward to hearing a full length in the future. – Sam Kogon (@samkogon)
